51F (11C) when I left the house. Felt cool so I donned the arm warmers, knee warmers, vest, and full finger gloves. Felt good for the first 5 miles. Then I had to unzip. By the time I got to work I was warm. Still cooling down with my small fan. I'll go take my sink bath shortly.

I was at an intersection and some yahoo behind me driving a lunch wagon kept revving the truck's engine. Once the light changed he started doing it again because I couldn't pull away from the intersection as fast as a car. A bus was stopped to pick up passengers about 1/2 block ahead. This idiot tried to pass me, but when he saw that I was moving left to pass the bus, he changed his mind and slowed down. I don't know if it was because I had been taking the lane or because there were pedestrians crossing the street. Anyway, I pulled away and never saw him again and I hope our paths don't cross in the future.
