Truly a lesson in misery and suffering. The wind, although not strong seemed to nearly always be a headwind. The one exception I recall was heading south on Bear Ridge. But by that time I was seriously in a hole I wasn't getting out of. I way underestimated how much water I needed and wound up nursing the last few ounces I had. I haven't done that in years, but apparently it's a lesson I unfortunately needed to learn again. Having enough water probably would have helped a lot, but it's hard to say if it would have been substantial. Being this was such a poor ride I guess I'll have to go with it would have helped a lot. Hopefully won't make this mistake again anytime soon! |
