I was able to bike commute again today. It was a cool morning, in the upper 40’s! I didn’t want to overdress, but definitely didn’t want to get cold. I ended up wearing a t-shirt under a vest with arm sleeves and riding gloves and shorts. The tips of my fingers got a little chilly, but otherwise it was the perfect kit for the day. I took a different route than normal too, I just went straight up Upton all the way to Victory Memorial. It wasn’t as scenic as the parkway, but cut off about a half mile and didn’t really add any time. There was a train blocking Humboldt, but not Fremont so that worked out ok. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The ride home was in the mid-70’s so just warm enough to work up a sweat in my t-shirt and shorts. I rode home on the parkway. Nothing exciting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Total for the day is around 10.5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
