114th ride of 2018 - Wednesday - 11/7/2018

2018 mileage: 2869.3

Today is another refreshingly cool (39°), gray and gloomy, and windy (18 mph WSW) day here in Ann Arbor—in a word, "refreshing." 😎 But the wind is only supposed to strengthen throughout the day, so I went out about as early as is possible at this time of year—just past 8 a.m.—and rode a round trip to Dexter (Baker Rd.), even though the outbound leg took me right into the teeth of the wind, and I sure felt it!

On the way, my friend Adrian Forbes passed me on Jackson Rd. and honked at me. But my distance vision is so poor that I would never have known who it was, had he not stopped to say hello and chat for a moment. We were both able to agree that we were in no danger of overheating.

The ride was 19.6 miles, and took me 2:28.
