Mud

It was one of those days that went between horrible and beautiful.  The rain and mist let up late but left us in a muddy mess.  Part of our way was freshly graded and muddy.   I would rather ride uphill and against the wind than pull a trailer in the mud.  We found a fountain in the fields above Futzen and cleaned up the built up mud.
The climbs had some outstanding sections in the black forest that made it all worthwhile.
