Day 4: At least I didn't shit my pants; Part 1.

When morning came I fealt very lethargic. I dragged my ass around, but moved at a snail's pace. Jason was also feeling aweful as his sinus infection was kicking his butt all over again. Eventually we were able to get back on our bikes and onto the road.
The sky was cloudy today and got continually worse as we saw rain for a majority of the ride. I was feeling pretty good considering the previous night. I didn't have to stop once to pooh on the side of the road, thanks to the dozen or so Pepto chewables that I took that day. That, and the fact that when your ass is REALLY sore from riding and you are sitting atop that narrow little saddle, that pain drowns out the pain in the colon, or at least lessens its urgency.
I can hardly remember the details of the ride. I do recall that it rained and or hailed almost nonstop. We did learn that if your directions say that there is an "overlook" ahead and it is a rainy, cloudy day, all it means is that you have to climb another big-ass hill. I'm sure that the views would have been great but I don't have x-ray vision to see through clouds.
Jason was definitely not feeling well today. He is arguably the most fit person in the group but he was bringing up the rear most of the time; behind Tom, who has a heart condition and the heaviest bike in the group.
