take that, wind!

it made me mad when i read how the wind treated my friend janeen today. it beat her until she gave in to its relentless torture and stopped. that's not how you're supposed to greet guests on tran-continental journeys.

with malice coursing through my veins, i set out to teach the wind a lesson. i rode like a house a fire east to chicaskia road and turned around. the wind unleashed its fury and i pedaled on. "for janeen!" i shouted.

i rode back to town and kept going. i laughed at the gale. "stupid gale!" i yelled. i turned again at 120th avenue and raced back toward home. i was so fast i had time to ride another three miles to spite the wind. i turned around and dixon road and sped home. take that wind!

hopefully the evil beast has been tamed now and janeen will enjoy the rest of her trek through oz! (31.09 miles @ 17.4mph)
