The good news about being in the absolute middle of nowhere is that I don't have to worry about any turns. I'm on one road. All. Day.
More good news is that I had a slight downhill all day today.
The bad news was that there was nothing but insane headwinds. I was constantly plagued by dust devils, tumbleweeds, and bugs slamming into my face. Not to mention I have some saddle sores forming.
Fortunately today was another low-mileage day; however, the reason for two shorter days has reared its head. Tomorrow I have a long day with lots of up hills and few breaks.
Hooray.
