Day 6 - Ferndale to Rio Dell

**STORM HITS**

Brent only made it 20 miles today in the storm. Sheets of rain and wind gusts up to 40 mph were his enemy. Today's ride was the first time Brent has been afraid of going downhill. It was just unsafe riding conditions.

Brent spent most of the day inside a cafe hanging out with the local foke (which by the way, never seem to leave their town so Brent couldn't hitch a ride with anyone). He was hoping for the slight chance for the storm to pass. NO LUCK!

The weather is supposed to be worse on Wednesday so he will have to make other arrangements to make it to San Fran on time.

What a huge disappointment this day has been. But at least he realizes this part was out of his hands.

Miles ridden today: 20
Total to date: 504
