My ride in today was just awesome. I intentionally took a route that takes me on an unpaved levee road for a couple miles. The gravel is fairly loose so it forces me to keep the pedals turning and my hands light on the bars to let the bike find its own way through. I guess I'm just a bit silly for intentionally trying to make my ride more difficult; I think I was thinking of a recent thread in C&V and a picture of a guy with a handlebar mustache and a mustache handlebar on a wooden-rimmed, fixed gear bike. Crazy.
Anyway, the weather was beautiful, the bike just sang, and it's Friday.
