Yes.
Stats if you want them.
What the stats don't tell: The invigorating scent of wet eucalyptus. The earthiness of wet, plowed fields. The crispness of rain-cleared air. The oppressiveness of chicken-dung fertilized orchards.
I don't have pictures of big, pillowy cumulus clouds blowing through, alternately obscuring and sharing the sun. We went from 48* at the start to 55* 129 min. later, so I was glad to have my layers.
I love cycling in fall.
