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.
But even that varies depending on how late it is into Winter! For example I wore leg warmers this morning, but I wouldn't want to in a couple of months, in the same conditions. So you'll need to track the dates also
