Today was a beautiful day, and being retired the fact that it is a Monday did not stop me from going for a ride. In fact, I was out for about 4 and a half hours, covering almost 200 miles under blue skies and temps that reached into the upper 70's. In fact, I had to stop part way through the ride, to open the vents on my jacket and change to light weight gloves. But I'm not really complaining, it was a great day to ride. The only thing that would have made it better was if I had had some riding friends to join me. But solo is certainly better than sitting at home watching the tube! What is really amazing, is that two days from now the weather report is for a high of 38 degrees and possible snow showers! Truly unbelievable.
