It doesn’t feel like Monday, because I did my long ride today. That made it feel more like Sunday!

Monday doesn’t feel like Monday any more, anyhow. That’s one of the benefits of retirement!😉 If I don’t do a long ride on Sunday, I can do it another day in the week. Ah, freedom!

I couldn’t get myself in gear, so to speak, early enough to be out while it was still dark. If I had, maybe I would have spotted a meteor or two! But even with a meteor shower in progress, that’s no guarantee. During many years of pre-dawn riding, I saw only a few shooting stars.

Happily, my legs felt better this morning; but I didn’t ride hard. It was enough to be out on the bike!

Do you ever get tired of sun sleeves? I sure do! Today I decided to skip them, even though that meant using more sunblock. Even at 6:00 am, you need it around here.

I was back home by about 8:15, before the sun was high. With another heat advisory hanging over us, I wanted to be home early; and I’m staying indoors as much as possible. Except for lunch. There’s a pizza restaurant nearby; and I walked over there and got a take-out calzone for lunch.

Tomorrow? Ride short and easy; and maybe visit the Tuesday morning Farmers’ Market. In fact, that’s close enough to home for me to walk!
