Yesterday's ride home was into a 40km/h headwind. I've had moderate to strong headwinds for the past two weeks, which makes the trip home quite slow.
This morning was warmer at +4C. I detoured out toward some road construction to check on the progress. They finally finished paving the stretch that goes out to the highway, though its getting a bit late in the year to take advantage of it. They certainly took forever working on it, I would have expected them to have finished it a month ago.
