50F this morning, 10deg. less than yesterday morning; Fall is in the air.

On yesterday afternoon's commute I dropped a semi! Ok, so it was fully loaded with gravel, about 1/4 mi from its destination, from a dead stop at a stoplight, going up a hill, but I made it up the hill and around the corner to the next street before the semi did. Woot!

Today was supposed to be an "easy" recovery commute. Avg spd = 16.3 mph. Yesteray's avg spd = 15.5 mph. Yay for Mechanic Andy @ LBS who unfoobar'd my rear derailleur!

Easy route today made use of the MUP alongside the 45mph, 4 lane, divided, street I take for the "fast route". MUP + intersections + road bike = thump thump
