Nice temp for riding this AM. All went well except for that early-ride "almost" when one of Canada's geese decided to hop off the curb in front of me. He nearly became a small throw pillow! I saw 5 other riders this morning, which is always good. After riding through North Carolina's version of Hell last week [100+ temps, forest fire smoke, etc.] this morning felt like I was being towed in it was so nice.

ATTN: Any local Triangle bike commuters want to get together next month? Maybe a grill-out somewhere [Crabtree?] and heated discussions about traffic laws, Conti Vs. Schwalbe, to Fred or not to Fred, etc.
