Re: Bike ride today

Pleasant surprise when I got back to my truck after my ride. Someone
had left a little note with a ribbon and a small sprig of flowers. The
note was a simple Easter blessing. There was no phone number to call,
no website or church to visit, just a Happy Easter from a lady (She
signed it and I'm sure I don't know her) who had a happy thought and
passed it on. I'm sure my truck wasn't the only vehicle that received
the blessing.

I only did 40 miles today because it was very hot, 90 F and very windy
20MPH, and 60+ humidity, too.
 
The new front derailleur worked perfect every time I ran it through
it's paces. I brought tools to fine tune it, but they weren't needed.
 
I've been wearing street shoes, sandals on the last two rides thanks
to the heel sling pedals. I guess I no longer can claim not liking to
walk around in SPD shoes as an excuse to not ride my bike to the
grocery store.

I have definitely advantage over gravel club mates as I use FiveTens so
flat pedal shoes vs clip less on any hike and bike!

Which isn’t why I wear them but slightly amusing on wet cobbled stuff!
