A Full Moon and My Headlight – October 20th Bike Ride
That is what I had to light my ride this evening. I got a later start than I had planned so the daylight was fading as I started the ride. The Raleigh M800 is fitted with light for this reason. With daylight savings time ending in a couple of weeks this was an early taste of riding in full darkness when I start before 6:30 PM when the DST ends. One thing I can count on is no other bikers out and a few joggers/walkers. I try to stay in areas where street lights are to help with seeing unmarked people.
The weather continues to be rather warm but clear skies and light wind or no wind. This evening it was 85 degrees when I started and 79 degrees when I finished.
