Perfect temps--low 60s so the knees were bare & happy. First commute this week after last weekend's half-century, so the legs were kinda slow. Little traffic, altough one cager couldn't wait to turn at a soplight so the moron jumped in the left lane to go around me, then turned right-on-red from a non-turn lane. The sun was not up yet so it was still quite dark, but the moron didn't have the headlights on, just parking lights. There's never a cop around when you need one. (Unless it was a bicycle cop they probably wouldn't do anything anyway. grumble.)

On the up side, I will set another personal (annual milage) best for the year on the ride home: 1500 miles! (That's up 3x from last year.)
