Lovely day for a ride today, going and coming. Though, it also seemed to be rugrat day. This is why I don't mind cooler weather: Every time the temp goes over 60, the multi-use fills up with toddlers. I almost ran down the cutest little kid while I was going around a much bigger kid, just because I didn't see him. Children are just built too close to the ground to be out on a path with bikes without their parents. They've got all the smarts of your average toy terrier, with none of its sense of self-preservation.</grumble>

But it was pretty, and warm, and there was a tailwind on the way home, so it's all good. Also, this was the last commute of my first five-day bike-commute week! I've been doing two days, one off, two days, weekend off... so it's kind of cool to just push through five in a row.
