The weather broke better than I was expecting on Monday, and I took the Surly Trucker DeLuxe and headed East at midday. The folks at the Kurukulla Center were washing the stupa.
I regarded the good weather as a gift, and had an energetic ride on the hills fringing the Fells, climbing and descending in turn. Happy legs, happy lungs, happy brain. One of the things the brain was happy about was the Rat Trap Pass Extralights' ability to smooth rough pavement, up hill and down.
