We are back to spring weather, and I love it. It's slightly warm, but the breeze was so strong this morning that it felt cool. This is the kind of strong headwind that sometimes demoralizes me, but it didn't today. It kept me cool. I didn't notice I was sweating until I stopped at work. The wind was very shifty, too, but it was a headwind the vast majority of the way. I hope the direction doesn't change at midday.
I feel I've been very lucky the last few months. It's been a very long time since the weather dissuaded me from riding to work. Well maybe I'm tougher than I used to be, but not much.
