Oh, John! The winds. The winds are a blast! An amazing riding companion who 
adds mirth and laughter and squinty eyes to the adventure. Will they blow me 
down the pass as I climb up? Now and again they boost up in a burst of delight 
only to toy with me and as I quickly shift from using my body as a sail 
propelling up up the pass to a tuck and grind through the grit sand blasting me 
face. I’m not as smart as you though, for I’m too pig-headed to downgear for 
the wind. Though around here, as soon as you downshift for the wind, it stops 
or pushes you along. Quite the jokester, mountain wind. Grin.

I rather thought today’s ride was a lost cause for comparing crank arm length — 
which would then mean harder to compare by the time a calm ride came along — 
but the winds were calm enough in the dprotected crevices and nooks and cranies 
that I got a great comparison.

With abandon,
Patrick
