Ey! Wretched day of cold! We have been riding hard and forsaking our internet updates. Our apologies. We stayed at a lovely woman named Tinner's house last night in Ilion, NY. We got our own rooms and didn't have to set our tent up in the rain! That ole nasty fall rain got it's stabs at us today though. It was 39 degrees and steady from the sky all day long. I tried to prepare with baggy feet over my wool socks, but no matter, the rain found it's way to my toes. Joe got another flat, #22, his personal best. After he changed it we needed a serious moral boost and warm-up. We pushed it into town for some pizza with terribly frozen and soggy extremities. It was pretty dang hard to get riding again after the painful de-thawing process. I changed socks, rebaggied and we road on. Fifteen miles later toes and fingers numb again. Super sucktime. Joe convinced me to ride on, but I did so with utter scorn and hate. He found humor my crabbytimeface, making me more irritated. Soon after it started snowing. Ah well sometimes the days are crappy what-can-you-do? We made it to a motel, threw our clothes in the dryer, watched some World Series (what a game!). Tomorrow looks to be sunny so we are going to kill it to Massachusetts.
