Someone said he keeps a spreadsheet that lists the clothes he wears at each temperature range. I thought, I don't need that. But I'm going to make one, because when the weather changes, I can't remember what works. I did fine yesterday, but I was too hot today, and it makes me ride more slowly than I would.
I guess I wasn't quite awake this morning. I rode two blocks along my normal route before I realized I needed to go the other way to stop at the post office first. Then on the way to the post office, I overshot it by one block. No big deal, though.
I'm still on my racing bike, and I think I ought to ride it more often, especially now that I'm comfortable wearing a backpack. It's a fun bike, and it makes climbing so easy.
I don't like the short daylight hours of the fall, but I do enjoy the weather. It's dry, and the air pressure is high.
