I thought my sarcasm would shine through. Conditions were mixed, heavy rain at times, light rain, and perfect conditions. Oh and I had 3 people including myself on board with luggage for 3 adults to last 1 week. Also, even though the average was a mere 74mph... I can attest to going much higher to make up for the 3 stops.
