Rode again today. The weather has been great. We haven't had a drop of rain in over a month, which is not great at all, but that does make for good cycling weather. I just haven't been riding. About 10C/50F this morning, and for me it's still shorts weather, but I did throw on a thin long-sleeve shirt over my t-shirt, and I wore gloves. Back when I rode through the fall, I was good in shorts down to about 4C/40F, and that's when the long pants, toe covers, windbreaker and bandana would come out. Even when I rode a lot more than I do now, I rarely rode in the winter.
Speaking of not riding much, I did ride about 100km/62 miles this past Saturday. Not all at once; it was spread out over the whole day. I would ride somewhere, lock the bike and do stuff on foot, rinse, repeat, over about 15 hours. Anyway, 100km is not really that far. I used to do randonneuring, where the starting distance is twice that. However, a certain part of my anatomy is obviously not used to it anymore. I seriously worried that I had done some real damage to my posterior by the time I got home. Five days later, I'm fine, no permanent damage done.
I'll share a picture I took on last week's ride home. A couple years ago, someone painted "HOWDY" on a concrete barrier, which was quickly removed, but not before I got a picture and posted it here. Now it says "SURA" and I don't know what that means and I don't want to Google it. Probably just a tag.
Have a great day everyone.
