Took the GT for a spin on Alameda Creek Trail, 18 miles flat. Weather was beautiful, trail not too crowded. On the way out, stressed, a little upset, angry (it's been a hard week at work, dear) on the way back, feeling better, watching families of ducks and geese, dodging the little chipmunks, saying hi and knod to the riders etc.

New wheels make enough of a difference that I may need new gears. I'm spinning and running out of high gears on the flats. Dang, this always happens, get new stuff, need new stuff.
