I saw only one other roadie out today, my new buddy cycling-sarah. I was just past the turn around point of my short out and back ride, when I saw her coming. I didn't even recognize her until we just about passed each other! Isn't funny how anonymous we become on our bikes? I've even had my own brother not know me as I've pulled up next to him! Anyway, I turned around and tagged with Sarah for a very enjoyable rest of the ride, ending with a little over 20 miles.

She and I both got off to later starts than usual. I was waiting for it to get over 40º. Once out, it was gorgeous. I was dressed just right, wearing everything I own, just about! I've started wearing a wool turtleneck first, a tech base-layer over it to stop the wind, then my jacket. I usually wear the base-layer first. Not sure which way is best, but since I felt so good today, maybe the new way. We'll see, once it gets cold, what's really better.

We're riding again tomorrow and Sat, too. I'm not slowing down at all at this point. I love riding my bike at this time of year.
