You know it's a bad headwind when you have to pedal to go downhill.

I'm in Cosmos!

I am writing form the public library in cosmos, and they close in about ten minutes so this will be a short post! This is my second day on the road. After over two hours of circling around trying to find the Luce Line start, I finally found it and got on my way.

Today was a much longer day in terms of mileage, although only in comparison to yesterday. I had a light headwind for most of the day, But near huthinson my luck changed and not only did headwind become a tailwind, the path went from dirt to asphalt! Praise the good taxpaying people of Hutchinson, Minnesota, for their silky smooth portion of the Luce Line.

That paved path didn't last forever though, and then something terrible happened. Something truly terrible folks. The path went form crushed limestone/dirt, to grass. Bumpy grass. I spent the remaining miles until Cosmos on the shoulder of Hwy 7. Cosmos seems nice enough.
I must go, the library is closing. I love you all, thanks for reading.

got you covered man. I started a facebook group for it. Don't worry, it's an invite only thing so creepers can't stalk you or something. I'm so glad you're well!
