I made it to BP 5 finally. I spent a long time at lunch, but I think that it was worth it. I am still tired, but feel some better.
A special thank you to the National Guard Medic who wrapped my left calf for me. Amazing how much better it feels with a layer of gauze to keep the sun off of it.
I hear that it is only 17 miles to finish, which I hope is true, because this wind is brutal. On my way here, I was literally going downhill at 12 MPH where I should have been going closer to 20 MPH.
See you at the finish!
God Bless,
JAy.

Jay,
I only stumbled across your blog b/c I wasn't able to ride this year & wanted to see if anyone was posting updates. You're it, so congratulations on your fortitude during what sounds like a rough weekend. I went 30 this morning in Houston & felt like I was riding in Amarillo. Congratulations on making it, & thanks (from someone with several friends with MS) for making the ride.
