May is gone already; and it seems like 2022 just began! It’s the final day of Bike Month; and tomorrow begins hurricane season — already! Yesterday there were concerns that Agatha might get into the Gulf; but now it seems the storm is rapidly losing strength. I’m glad to hear it!

But there’s an area of weather already in the Caribbean that they’re watching. It looks like it will stay away from us; but Florida might have heavy rain by the weekend.

Our forecast looks like there won’t be too much rain through this coming weekend; and that’s good. I don’t enjoy riding in the rain, especially when there’s the risk of lightning!

Today I decided to skip the road bike; and only rode to work. I know; Bike Month isn’t over just yet. But I take a medication once a week that must be taken on an empty stomach; and I’m not supposed to eat for at least half an hour afterwards; preferably a full hour. I could tell that I’d get too hungry if I tried to go for a ride; and no cyclist wants to bonk!

Incidentally, that’s why I always carry some “goos” with me; and now and then I do need to stop and eat one. Even when I eat a pre-ride snack, it’s not unusual for me to get hungry before I’m back home.
