It was a gloriously sunny morning, still cold (55) and windy, but no rain; this is what a morning should look like.

The ride today consisted of mostly forest, sometimes the Enchanted forest,fields, rough and rumble roads and Wind………in the face……..at 25 mph, plus stronger gusts!!!  But the vistas……. the downpour from yesterday seemed to have made everything green again.Skirted a few townsand rode the ferry across the Elbe with a way too big truck.But mostly we bumped along the rough paths pushing into the wind, sometimes almost blowing us over.  We were quite happy to finally cross the bridge into our destination of Magdeburg.It was a very tough 68 miles in the wind, but no rain, so we were happy.
