Now to the sad part!

I have just moved my "utility" bike down to the basement, and set it on my trainer.

Have a flat front tire, and will need to patch the tube before riding inside today.

Hate to see the summer season disappear!

But, it may be back this weekend.
I live just down the road in Boulder and I have to tell you I look forward to fall, if not winter. Fewer riders on the paths, less sweating, and crisp, cool air. I avoid any days when there's moisture on the ground (summer and winter both for this one), but I never let the temperature become a factor in whether or not I ride. Rode today with my son, but it was already 48 degrees Fahrenheit by noon, when we started.
