Hey Mimi- that sounds like an adventure and a half. My husband & I went out for 24 mile ride up to the Tucson foothills this morning, but our weather was much more congenial. It was mild though breezy, with some gusts between 20 and 30.

Speaking of bikes in the shop, I was happy to be back on my road bike today, which had been in the shop to get a cable replaced. They didn't call me to say it ready, so I was compelled to try out my recently acquired 1983 Nishiki mixte on my mid-week rides. For a 25 year old bike it was surprisingly easy and enjoyable to ride.
