Checked the temp before I headed out the door and it was a balmy 43. Brrr. Grabbed a hi vis safety jacket which was plenty comfortable. Supposed to hit upper 70's with a southern wind this afternoon.

Started commuting in June down a highway with a narrow shoulder. It's the first four miles in the morning of my trip. I started by wearing a bright colored shirt switching to a hi vis safety shirt with reflective strips on it and have been using a blinking taillight. My start time is generally within a ten minute each ride so I tend to see the same vehicles every ride. I've noticed the regulars are giving me more room as they zip by now. A change I can live with.
