Finally a day with no rain in the forecast, so I rode my nicest bike with no fenders. I have hardly commuted on my favorite bike all summer because of the continual threat of storms. It also needed new brakes, which I had replaced at the LBS last week. It is now stopping like a charm, so its one shortcoming has been fixed. It was a fast ride after two days off (unless you count spinning at the gym) and my legs felt great.

I saw some sunglasses in the middle of the road and turned around to pick them up because they looked better than your usual fare. Turns out they were some Oakleys, in decent shape except for a scratch on one lens, probably occurring in the fall. I plan to post a FOUND ad on the local Craigslist because it's the right thing to do, it's good cycling karma and I wear prescription glasses anyway.
