TransIowa strategy #29

If I can make it through the first full day without dying, then theoretically the wind should die down for some pleasant nighttime riding. That full night of riding should knock out a bunch of miles so that when the sun comes up I can feel like I am on the home stretch.

(This is all assuming no overnight thunderstorms, blizzards, rabid coyotes, or the like. Also assuming that I have enough supplies to stay hydrated and sustained through the night - and don't get too lonely, scared, lost, bored, or otherwise psychologically beat down.)

good plan.

I figure nobody can see me crying at night. It's my best chance for recovery by sunrise.

There is merit in your plan to not see the crest of the hill. Perhaps if one cannot see it, it may not be there.

See you in Iowa.
