Congrats Red!
I did 43 road miles with DH yesterday, dinner with the parents wasn't until 5:30 and we could resist light winds and a 70 degree Texas day. I wore short sleeves, no base layer and shorts. Not bragging, it is comical the silly weather we have. Sure makes up for 70+ 100 degree days this summer.
Today I went to one of my favorite trails for 10 wonderful miles of singletrack. The trails were positively sublime after getting a nice rain Tuesday! They were so dry, dusty and getting damaged from the drought but today it was hardpacked, fast and fun! No sliding in corners, no loose funky descents. It was a great day. The dogs and their people seemed to be loving it to. Saw a beautiful rottweiler, funny little doxie, got herded by a Aussie named Jake, several lovely mutts and some well mannered boxers. I love sharing the trail!
