41F with a light ssw breeze this morning. I too was running late so took the shorter, but steeper route. This lovely route includes a VERY narrow bridge on 40MPH roadway 1/2 way up the first hill. I hit this bridge at about 7:50 A.M. I was very happy with the motorists. I took the lane to cross the bridge. They respected my move. I like this detour because the hills are a bit steep. Really get the heart pumping.
