My legs were tired this morning from riding a lot of miles last week, including 60 on Sunday, but the weather gave me a boost. Temps were in the mid-40s with a stiff tailwind much of the way to work, so I made good time considering how tired my legs were. The pollen is getting thick here, and I could see it in my headlight beam ... thought it was lightly raining at first.

I almost forgot to mention the time change. I am so used to riding in the dark during my morning commute, that I hardly noticed the change, even tho it had been getting pretty bright for my morning ride until now. Weirdly, I didn't have any trouble getting up at my usual time (5:30 am) even tho it was actually 4:30 am and I didn't go to sleep until nearly midnight last night.
