very good rides both ways, 40 deg am - 60 deg pm, dry/lite wind!

Saved in AM by air-zound horn!!

at interchange with limitted access (4 lane) road, a van driver was approaching from "jug-handle" (nj for off-ramp) onto secondary road. i ride to work on this road. i watched him proceed, there was no eye contact, and it seemed he was proceeding into my established area.
i horned 2x and he cought eye contact, waited as i had right of way (VB).
he road next to me further up road, rolled window down, and stated he was sorry, did not see me due to the rising sun (i got a later start), and he also stated that the horn got his attention. i waved a "thanks for sharing" and we proceeded on our way.

wore shorts with goretex jacket on return, re-loaded air-zound to 80 psi and hope i don't need to use it again (but it's ready)!
