Roll Over – May 17, 2023

  • Møn: Day 6
  • Distance: 11.2 miles / Total 80.5 miles / 18 km
  • Time: 8 hours
  • Ascent: 440’ Decent: 485’
  • Weather: 53 degrees 23 mph wind / overcast with patchy sun in afternoon

A five-inch tall downy Vibeunge was waddling across the road. A burst of wind lifted him up and soundly dropped him. He rolled over and over like tumbleweed. The Vibeunge righted himself, gave a few shakes as if stumbling from a few too many drinks, then ambled across the road. I think I was more traumatized than the bird.

  1. Dear Linda, Coast looks windy (as the Vibeunge experienced!) Looks like you were you on the road most of the journey today! Sincerely, Bill
