October 18th Bike Ride – When It’s Cloudy…
When it’s cloudy the sun really sets in a hurry. Tonight there were a few clouds in the western sky and when the sun moved down the darkness arrived in a hurry. Thank goodness for my headlamp and tail lights. Tonight most of the joggers I came across were wearing reflective clothing. Temperature was a nice 84 degrees when I started and only dropped to 78 when I finished. Wind was a light 7 mph from the south which has no effect on the trails.
When I got back I had to load up my Mercier Serpens bike to take with me tomorrow. Now that I have my new bike I have the Mercier listed on Craigslist.com and a person is interested. Hopefully it finds a new home. There are plenty of miles left in it.
Today’s ride data:
- October miles 359.31
- YTD miles 4360.90
