John and I went for a ride East on S-22 towards Salton Sea and back. The wind was pushing us along at 30+ MPH on the way out. We stopped at an overlook of the badlands at Ocotillo Wells:
On the way back we had to push our way through the same winds that pushed us along on the way out. We took turns pulling at 12-15 MPH on the flats. It was brutal.
Once I returned, I patched all of our flat tires. We have a total of 14 wheels on the trip, as three of our four bikes have both road wheels and offroad wheels. Of the 14 wheels, five had flats:
Yesterday afternoon we moved the RV closer to the main road. Cell coverage was so bad in our old location that we had to walk a few hundred feet to make phone calls. Amazingly, in our old location we were able to pull in 200kbps WiFi from 7.1 miles away, a new record for us. In our new location, just 200 yards closer to the road, we can now see Borrego Springs in the distance, and we have great cell coverage and 800kpbs WiFi from 4.8 miles away.
Good Shabbos (again) form Anza Borrego State Park!

How do you know how far away the WiFi source is? Is the router named something like “Home Depot Borrego Springs” and you use Google maps to determine the distance?
Another big snow expected for Monsey on Thursday.
No, somehow the device knows. I suspect it has to do with round trip times at the ACK / SYN ACK level, but I’m not sure. It does seem to be quite accurate.
Good luck with the snow!
