Weekend rides - Mercer Island/South Lake wA loop

[emily_in_nc]

Too cold for me here -- high was only in the 30s in NC. No riding for me this weekend. Supposed to be warmer by next weekend so keeping fingers crossed. Hard to believe it was 82 just a few short days ago!

Good for you Mimi -- I am more of a wimp about rain and cold than you.

Mimi, you look so cute!

I did a my regular loop yesterday. The weather was really cold, so I had to layer up again. Nothing really interesting to report, just a good sinus clearing ride. Oh, and when I got back, my bf said "wow, that was really fast!" He probably fell asleep while I was gone, so it seemed faster than normal.

Today is a rest day, but I rode to the store. As I was waiting to cross a busy street, guy in a truck stopped in the middle of the boulevard to let me go. I know he was trying to be nice and all, but I couldn't go because of other oncoming cars, which then also stopped for me. I'd just rather wait my turn, and not have a big confusing spectacle made to let me cross the street. I think it's because I was in street clothes, and with a pannier. I also had on cute socks, so maybe it was that.
