Misty and foggy. Still cool and waiting for spring. Got honked at, not sure if it was a honk of encouragement or derision, but I passed the car at a light and the driver was smiling... not sure why.
I tried shifting less today, kinda to test my strength. Made it half way before I shifted to the next larger cog to get up a hill. After that, only 2 more shifts the whole way in. Could have done less, I'm certain.
Hope the ride home will be peaceful.
