Is it spring or fall?

Had a nice ride this morning. It was interesting because the temperature dropped noticeably from what it’s been for the past week or two. All of a sudden I had the vest and arm-warmers back out, and the knit cap under the helmet. The morning felt more like a cool fall morning than a late spring one. There was even something fall-like about the light.

Anyway, I rode 36 and a half miles. The average speed was only 15.7. I hate it that I didn’t ride into work any during the past week, and I felt like I was a little out of my rhythm. Really though the problem was the wind (when isn’t the wind the problem?). This time the ride home was mostly into a headwind and my average of 16.5 at the halfway point took a tumble as I turned back northwards into it.

Still, it was a beautiful morning. I didn’t see too much nature or wildlife: a dead snake, some cows, and a donkey. Nothing else to report.
