Nice pics as usual.
I commuted again same as I usually do. Yesterday (Tuesday) and again this morning. Traffic has been very light, probably because so many people took vacation time after the Monday holiday. One thing I've noticed is that when traffic is light drivers are even more aggressive than typical. I guess they are thinking when the roads are clear they can make really good time going to work or wherever. Traffic laws, courtesy, safety be d--d'ed, just get there NOW, by golly!
Fortunately I have to interact with traffic very little.
The ride home this evening will be, uh, warm. There is an air quality alert on too. I had the choice of either riding through it or contributing to it. I chose to ride. I may question the wisdom of that decision later today.
