We are into a string of perfect cycling days here in Olympia, 58F at 6AM for my ride in & 84F at 3:30 PM when I go home & usually around mid 70s during my lunch time round trip. There are suddenly cyclists all over the place but most are not up to speed yet & ride slowly. Augie: [ I live in a podunk college town (Monmouth) ] My oldest son works for that college. Its really a pleasant place if you like small towns. Years ago (80s), when I was in grad school in Portland, OR there was a bicycle commuting map available that had all the streets color coded to show the best bike routes. I found it very helpful for my bike commutes to school & work. Helped me to quit using a couple of dangerous routes. I'm sure that map, or a better one, is still available if you check a local bike shop. Enjoy your Summer! Don
