Drizzle and fog when I got up but the drizzle stopped so I took the mountain bike out. There are plenty of steep streets around here and access to dirt nearby, but no epic trail riding. I headed to an area with some sandy canyons (perfect for wet weather) and other fun stuff. I started to go up a canyon and I saw something move through the bushes and I couldn't identify it. Pretty sure it was not a coyote but it might have been a deer. Could also have been a big cat, so I turned a different way. It was a little eerie with nobody around and low fog.

I went to a little peak overlooking the valley to have a granola bar and there were sirens below which got the coyotes howling. I went back down and went to a park which was all locked up. I know a way to get in there by mtb but once in I couldn't get out the main gate so I had to climb back up the rocky thing I came in on. Of course it started raining by then so I just went home.

It's not so bad getting wet if you can just go right home.
