48F and sunny! The pollen seemed to really bother me today but I was determined to enjoy the ride. And I did until I got off my bike to walk up some stairs and noticed I had stepped in some dog poop. I cleaned it as best I could and then swished my shoe in a puddle near my office. It turns out the puddle wasn't just rainwater but some kind of toxic sludge. So I spent more time cleaning that up (thank God for Wet Ones!). The good news is I can't smell anything so I think I got it cleaned up. It should be a great ride home today, as long as I don't have a repeat of the dog poop incident.
