70F this morning with heavy, low clouds. Not the threatening kind, just....clouds. Barely got 50 feet from my apartment when I came upon the very flattened body of a bunny on the street, and I mean FLAT! Wife's gonna be devastated when I tell her about it later tonight. Uneventful ride to the office, but I did zip by another cyclist in the park going the opposite direction, and I barely saw him cause he had no lights, reflectors, or high-viz clothing on. Just some dude in jeans and a shirt on a cruiser or something. Not really smart to be riding stealth in the dark. Had to run the same red light from yesterday; damn thing just won't trigger for me! Oh, I remembered on the way in - Oklahoma put in to effect the Idaho stop for cyclists just yesterday. Less worry now with all the stop signs, but I'm always cautious anyway. Final note - when I parked the bike in the office I found my ebike's odometer to be at 990 miles, so I'll definitely hit the 1,000 mark when I get home this afternoon.
