Enjoy your new better zippy bike, Corsair!

Go up early, ready to bike into town for coffee and to buy fresh bread and greens, etc...then it started RAINING and was yucky out.
Bundled up and walked down instead- haven't done that in a while.
A young ponytailed man sat next to me at the cafe counter while I had breakfast. After a while he said "Hey you ride a lot of long distance bike, don't you?" I asked why he asked, and he said he sees me on the road when he drives around the area, and I'm usually miles from town, in various other towns on my bike. Too funny really, because those other towns are not so far away, maybe only 10 or 20 miles away! And my all time longest ride so far is a modest 40 miles. But I accepted the compliment anyway, and it felt cool to be thought of by someone as a "long distance biker".
