The weirdest moment from today's race; there were at least half a dozen photographers (real photographers, not folks with iPhones) at the barriers taking pictures.

It did not rain at our CX race today, but there were other hazards.
The twisty, heavily rooted section was diabolical.
I did get to use the big ring for a bit on this stretch of gravel leading down to the paved start/finish area.

We went out to dinner with some friends and left a big bowl of candy at the front door with a sign that said "Take Two."
We came back to an empty bowl. Mrs datlas said "wow, we never had so many trick-or-treaters!!" I told her it was probably just a few greedy kids.

Bailey wants me to tape rulers to his legs, so he can trick or treat as a normal dog.

So many things to celebrate, thought I'd try something different. I'd highly recommend, very tasty.

Thanks for the spoiler!
Anyway, November 1 here already. Start of the new randonneuring/Audax Australia season here and there is a ride today. Only 100km, and we covered much of the course a fortnight ago. It was mighty windy then, but it's a beautiful bright, sunny, calm day today.
