Thursday, July 1, Day 56
Ray Lake to Dubois, Wyoming (77 miles)

Today was two rides. The one we enjoyed in the morning and the worst day I’ve had since starting this trip in the afternoon.
Our first 28 miles jaunt from Ray Lake to our scheduled stop at Crowheart was a normal ride of up and down grades. There was a light wind blowing and the temperatures were very moderate.
We could see a storm front building to the south of us that was creating a high wind blowing in our direction. We are headed north so the winds were pelting us on the left side and gusts were upwards of 45-50 mph. Both Steve and I were in jeopardy and the two of us were nearly blown off the road on several occasions.
