What a day! Cool sunny and tailwind, perfect ride. I rode about two miles before realizing I forgot my wallet. So I ended up with 17 this morning. 17 very fine miles.

Made the final step to converting my bike to road bike for Grabwaar. Bought an absurdly expensive Specialized saddle (toupe). I really don't understand this saddle, when I get off the bike my butt is less sore then when I got on. Yet the thing is hard and has no more then an 1/8 inch of padding. I rode it last summer and finally bought the thing. Ride in this morning was just as good as I remembered.

Leaving for Grabwaar tomorrow!!!
