Ok, NOW it's cold!

It was 31.7 on Ms. Indoor-Outdoor Thermometer this morning at 10 till 7 A.M. I ate some generic bran flakes, suited up, and hit the road.

There was a little frost on the plants near Costco.

I was tootling along, thinking how nice it is to bike on Sunday morning. It's quiet, not hot, and there are few cars to agravate me. So I'm approaching the light at Bus Ct. (Is that the best they could come up with?) on Fletcher Parkway, I've got the green, some lady pulls up the the (red) light, decides she don't need to wait, and procedes to go. How rude! Wasn't dangerous to me, I was about 25 feet away not having QUITE entered the intersection, but still. And the sight-lines weren't all the great for her, she couldn't see if a car was coming from the East. Some people!

It was interesting watching the Average Speed flucuate up and down. It was near 11 at the top of Swallow Drive, and I managed to get it up to 13.00 (12.99 really) at the 1 hour mark. It dropped WAY down after the Jackson Drive Hill, but I had it back up to 12.6 when I stopped in my driveway. It dropped to 12.57 by the time I walked it into the garage. I swear.

I stopped on the Father Junipero Serra Trail to take a picture of some rock climbers at the base of the rock climb.

Lots of people at Lake Murray walking the path. All bundled up, except for one young fellow on a bicycle wearing an undershirt. Brrrr!!
