A Shaky Start

Yes, I rode to work today.

And, we're off to a shaky start with our Monday morning photo.

I changed vantage points a little. Why? Delivery trucks. And, it should be easier to duplicate week in and week out.

Soon the sun will be directly in my eyes for part of the morning ride. Not fun. There seems to be disagreement on whether it is better to be riding into the sun or having the sun at your back. Personally, if someone is going to have their visibility compromised by the sun being in their eyes, I'd rather it to be me.

I actually turned on the heated grips this morning. I'm becoming such a whimp. Of course, if I didn't have heated grips on the Symba, I would have worn different gloves. Anyway, I love my heated grips.

• 57F/14C and not a cloud in the sky for the ride to work.
• 79F/26C with a few clouds for the home ride.
