With hints of improving weather, we faced disintegrating roads for a bit. Bad roads are hard on the riders and can lead to more mechanicals for our hard-working volunteer mechanics too.
Good thing we had plenty of spare tires in the repair trailer.
Fortunately the weather cleared in time for us to honor fallen NJ State Troopers.
The good weather didn't last long though. We had to make an unscheduled stop and seek shelter as massive thunderstorms started to build just before we were to cross the Commodore Barry Bridge. We got really lucky, as the storms did not move toward us and we were able to make the bridge crossing without any issues and roll on in to Wilmington, Delaware for the night.
Stats for the day:
Miles ridden: 91
Weather: Temps upper 50s to 70s, fog, threats of rain, threats of lightning.
Quote of the Day: Can't publish it, but what I said when a vehicle in the procession sent me off-roading while I was trying to pace another rider back into the pack
