This morning's ride was 64F, 90% humidity with a light 5mph breeze in my face, nice.
Most mornings I see an older couple out for thier walk, they are friends of my parents, in thier early eighties I think. So I stopped and introduced myself because they were on a side road without traffic. Boy were they sharp as tacs! They remembered my name right away & I hadn't seen them since I was a kid ( I'll be 40 this year)! Really nice to stop & chat for a few minutes. I sure hope I'm still kickin' like them when I get to that age.
The ride home was nice too, the road was wet from a little rain but was dry by the time I got half way,then it sprinkled a little to finish out the ride, temp is 72F with a light south wind on my left shoulder.
Think I'll skip tommorrow & ride Thursday & Friday. I 'll have to work Saturday so maybe I'll ride five days this week.
I've been keeping my average speed down until I get my legs back so I shouldn't be too beat for Sat.
