The sun is rising earlier. Left the house around 5:30 and I could adjust the headlight from "see" to "be seen" after about a half hour. Did my usual Sunday ride--43 miles. It was a chilly 49 degrees at the start, but the humidity kept the edge off. Cool mornings keep the fair weather crowd inside, waitng for it to warm up. Memorable moment of this ride: A bird pooped on my face. Actually, on my lower lip. That was my most disgusting bike moment I've had to date (thank goodness I wiped it off, even though I initially thought it was just a drop of water).
