Coudersport PA, mile 408

Wellsboro: Wynken, Blynken, and Nod



Rode west into the cold wind and managed 64 tough miles through the "endless hills of Pennsylvania."
NW wind 20-25 mph, high temp just 54. The wind resistance was strong and the cold draining. Gusts can  knock the bike about and make the riding even harder.
After the first 12 miles, I stopped for tea and a bagel and to try and get warm in Wellsboro. The town park fountain has this Wynken, Blynken, and Nod statue. I was shivering too much to appreciate the "wind that sped them all night long."
