Woke up this morning, and the heat had broken. Coastal breeze has pushed the smoke back to the hills, and it's cool enough to get back to commuting by bike.

In lieu of riding, I did spend my spare time in the garage last week getting to the second of two Electra Ticinos I had picked up recently. They were beat up and shoved in a corner of the garage of a couple who had taken to E-bikes. I had fixed up one of them for my wife to enjoy. With no riding in the cards, I set up fans in the garage and set to work on this one for me.
Our high is supposed to get back in the mid 90s this weekend. I am hoping the lows are staying below 80°. Our humidity is coming back too.
