Set out at 0630 this morning with a friend, before the rain chance climbed. It's now 1000 and there are reds/yellows starting to show up on the statewide radar, although not in my immediate locale just yet. Nice 30 mile ride at an easy 15.x MPH average. While we didn't stop to smell the roses, we did stop and smell a bit of Diesel as the daily freight train passed.

Oh yeah, the usual local dog pack 'welcomed' us as we rode through their jurisdiction, but they were content this time to just express their displeasure and let us ride on...
