Death Valley Double Century 03/01/08

Tough day and a DNF. Had 20-30 mph winds with gusts up to 60. Except for the first windless 15 miles, it was headwinds for the next 35 until the hills which had headwinds too. Downhill wasn't any easier and by the turnaround point, the winds shifted and had cross/head wind back to the start (mile 150). Then the last 50 miles was in the dark but again had cross/headwinds with sand blasts. Blew me about 10 feet sideways enough of times for me to take the SAG wagon back.
