good rides both to and from work. chilly, but i warmed up quiet nicely after the first 5-10 minutes. only a couple of mildly annoying drivers to deal with. one dog came crashing out of the bushes. i'm not sure what, but something big and black with enormous teeth. i yelled "get back!" twice and he received a swift kick to the jowls with a size 8 work boot. he didn't give chase anymore after that.
tonight the spouse and i are doing the tour de lights downtown, so the raleigh and the KHS are decked out in lights, bells, garland and ribbons. should be fun.
