Loving the weather, well, minus the wind. Just absolutely lovely temp. this AM - 58 degrees. Couldn't ask for better. Was a little cool at the beginning in my shorts and performance fabric shirt, and a little warm at the end of the ride, but for the middle 80% of it, couldn't have been more comfortable. Wind this morning was not an issue, but last night's gusty 15-25 mph winds were.

Maybe it's because I grew up in western Pennsylvania, but nothing about a temperature in the 80s says autumn to me. That reaks of summer. I don't care how it feels. Give me 40s in the AM 50s or 60s in the day and some orange, red, yellow foliage, then you're talking...
