Today we had nearly the entire day off. We had one formation at 1300 hours followed by a briefing from the commander than off the rest of the day. I went to chapel at 0830 then rode for more than an hour. After the the meeting and formation I rode again. altogether I rode 38 miles, the most I have ridden in one day this year. Usually riding in Oklahoma means fighting a steady 25mph wind. Today the wind was only 15 mph. It seemed like still air after the usual wind here. The temp hit 55 degrees, also better than the last few days.
Besides the bike riding, the Mob Cafe served real turkey with cornbread dressing for lunch and dinner. It was really good.
Tomorrow we are up before 5 for morning PT. But one day of sleeping in until 0730 was really nice.
