A Very Cold Start

5/20/16.  Cut Bank to MaGrath, Canada.  40 miles

It was about 38 degrees all day with a 10-15 mph head wind, overcast and raining!  The wind chill made it 27 degrees!  What more do I need to say. It was so cold that Russ and I bailed at the border.  Only half the group finished the 70 miles (Jane being one of the finishers).  We averaged around 8 mph. Needless to say we were miserable.  No tenting tonight, we are in a funky cabin at a campground with the heat on high and pouring down rain.   Tomorrow is suppose to be more of the same.
Ready to ride
This is the gang.
