East bound rider

I meet my first east bound rider today. So far I've met 30 west bound riders and just one east bound rider. He's riding from SF to DC. He mentioned that he hit 58 mph descending Monarch Pass (the highest point of the ride). I've ridden that fast and it makes certain parts pucker! I don't let Lightnin' get above 35 mph. His knees aren't so good - old football injury.

Thunderstorms are rolling in - may be an interesting afternoon.
