What’s up with my bicycle computer? This morning that crazy Garmin suddenly gave a screen reading that said, “Incident Detection”; and I couldn’t get the screen to return to its normal riding readout.

I had no idea what that readout meant. Had my heart rate strap come loose? (It hadn’t). Was there (oh, please, NO!) an active-shooter incident ahead? Fortunately, there wasn’t. Maybe I accidentally bumped one of the Garmin’s buttons while steering the bike one-handed. Whatever it was, that crazy Garmin drives me crazy sometimes!

Electronics can do some strange things, that’s for sure. Maybe it will be back to normal for my next ride, whenever that may be. It depends on what’s up with the weather! The forecast for tomorrow shows a high chance of rain; and the next day doesn’t look much better. I might have to haul out the trainer.

I still forget sometimes that I’m retired, and don’t have to ride at 5:00 am; if the weather forbids an early morning ride, I might be able to ride later in the day. But this morning I did ride very early. It’s full moon time; and luckily the clouds didn’t obscure the moon the entire time. I saw the moonlight on the river; and I’ve really missed that.

The forecast for tomorrow doesn’t look good at all. T-storms are likely; and I don’t like to ride when lightning is around. I guess all I can do is wait for tomorrow morning, and see how things are; and if conditions are OK, I can ride to Whole Foods. I want bananas; and at the rate I’ve been going, I’ll soon be out of sunblock!

It will be great if I can also get in some miles on the levee bike path; but I’m not counting my chickens. Weather around here is so capricious!
