I need to factor in some time to strip the bike down completely and tune up/clean/etc, this is not the time of year to be off the bike though. Should be low 70's for the ride home.
Huh. You too? I wiped down the rims, tweaked some stuff, was rewarded with a nice run in, this morning. Saw another guy going the opposite way, and three others on the way in. Cool in the morning, 40Fs but expected to be in the 60-70F on the way home. Sunny and clear as a bell, out.
