Car said it was 35f, but there was frost on the ground. Sun right in the eyes last 5 miles. So I ran with the rear lights on all the way. Some lady shouted something at me so I guess she was admiring my lights.

Traffic very heavy this morning, and looks like they're going to resurface the shoulders along farefield rd. They were a little so of 120, and it would be really nice if they go all the way to Gilmer. But who knows what evil lurks in the minds of the DOT?

Continuing issue with rear der. Chain hunting in the smaller rings. Never know whch way to turn the adjuster. Both directions seem to make it worse.
