Beautiful ride this morning with mild temperatures and a light tailwind. I rode my cross bike for a change of pace and made great time. I left an hour later than usual because I didn't get home from work until about 9 pm last night. I had been out of town at a meeting and we didn't return to my office until 7 pm. By the time I had checked my emails and phone messages and got ready for the ride home, it was 7:30 and nearly dark. However, I managed to squeeze in two more commute days by riding to work on Tuesday with my travel clothes packed in panniers. I used one of the panniers as my "suit case" and traveled light.
