I'm hoping tomorrow isn't going to be as bad.
For getting out yesterday and giving it a try.

Well, "yesterday's tomorrow" is "today's now" and I'm getting ready for the 167 mile Cross Florida ride. Yesterday was indeed windy and glad things have calmed down a bit plus hoping the rains stay away. Bib number 1000 so that's pretty cool, new tires on the Roubaix and hoping to be able to suck some wheels as we are starting into a head wind.
