Ride Description  

Today was the hardest day so far. There was lots of mud and the big bikes did not like that (the kind of mud that sticks to your feet if you walk in it.). Several riders fell and struggled with the mud. They had had some freak storm the night before and there were several washout on the roads. I on the BMW had two tip over incidents. It was miserable to fight to keep the big bike upright. My arms and wrists are sore from being tense for so long. 100 miles of mud was no fun.
