Slow, easy commute today. No real traffic issues. I got to ride with a fellow commuter today - it's the first time that's happened in two weeks or so. It was nice to have the company for a few miles. It's funny, but the slight chill in the air really did remind me that fall is creeping in. It's time to rummage around and find the winter gear - not to wear it, but to know where it is.

I start teaching in three weeks, and I must say that I'm not looking forward to driving again. But there's no way I can log 100 miles a day and shuffle two jobs. Looks like I'll need to start feeding the metal and glass beast again. Bummer ...
