jhetleyFive or ten gray squirrels smashed on the pavement. Migration? Also, four or five bicycles with apparent flat tires or other malfunction. I passed them by without rendering assistance, prim in the knowledge that a sag-wagon would come by.
Made a tactical error for this morning's bike run, choosing the same route as an organized ride. The bicycle ego got punctured repeatedly as I was passed by a hundred or so hardcore Spandex-bodies in swarms. Pin-on numbers up over 300. Well, damn near all of them were younger than me . . .
Upriver, across, and back down the other side, admiring the early-turning leaves. Anyway, drizzle on part of the ride, raining now. So I showed the wisdom of my years by not splitting off from that route to do a longer ride. And I did pass some of those twerps on the homeward leg. No sense of pacing.
