A pleasant ride in at low to mid 40s when I started out. Managed to get the clothing just about right, but watched several fellow riders stopping to shed layers. I should get to ride home this evening in shorts and just a light wind jacket over t-shirt, as it should still be in the low 60s or high 50s when I leave the office.

Traffic was awful this morning for the car portion of my commute, so after I dropped my daughter off (several minutes late), I parked in a different spot to maximize cycling and cut some of the delay. I estimate that I saved about 15 additional minutes of traffic delay, and I actually made it to work several minutes ahead of 'schedule'. Hopefully the folks in the neighborhood (and particularly the person whose home I parked in front of) won't get too P.O.ed at my van being there all day. I wouldn't want to park there regularly even if it is legal.
