Well we got up sorta early this morning to head on the road again.
The weather is kinda chilly. Had to wear my coat and best most of the day. So much for saying that the weather is too hot for riding. I felt like I was freezing most of the day. The wind came up as well which didn't make it much better for riding. Those cross winds make it hard to keep a bike going straight on the road.
Oh I forgot to mention that yesterday we went for a ride on an 1800 steam train as well. The ride we took had us on a trip for an hour. If you would have drove that distance it would have only took you ten minutes. The wind being a little cool that day also made for me feeling chilled because people had the windows opened. Yeah I am
Just a whimp when it comes to the cold.
As we left South Dakota the traffic started to pick up. We are now back on flat land and dang dusty as well. Went through a little area were you would call it the bad lands. Then right back into dusty flat land. With the cross wind coming up all the more and then the traffic started to accumulate with truck after truck after truck. These truck were filled with all sort of things for construction. The further north we got the more trucks and traffic we came across. North Dakota is booming. We also noticed that we had a time change again. I thought the time change would have been if we were under Manitoba but I guess it is somewhere in between of Sask. well now we are two hours difference in time.
Well being back on the road my aches and pains have started to show their wildly ways again. I am hurting tonight. Legs were pretty stiff all day. Had to raise one cheek then the other just to keep the blood flowing. My exercise for the day. On cheek up then put it down then the other cheek up and put it down. Move my foot to the front of the peddle the move it back again. I try not to move too much and hubby starts to motive the bike wiggling around a little. He does stop every so often to get off. At half a tank and then stop for a stretch. Then tank empty get off again to fill the tank. So I am getting stretch time. Happy about that.
Well we made it into Williston around 5 o clock. To find a place to stay though was not easy. With all the construction going on here the motels are all full up. Took us a few places to ask before we found something near the airport. Expensive that is. But at least we have a place for the night. So for tomorrow we figured out where we where going to hopefully be and made a reservation. Go figure found another Best Western to stay at. The points are starting to add up. Maybe will get to use the points sometime or rather after we get home.
Well tomorrow will be an early morning so will stop blogging for now. He wants to get on the road early before all the traffic starts showing its ugly head again. Those trucks are not fun to be around when you are on a bike.
