Well…up at 4:25 this morning and it looks like I will be able to get 2 rides in before the dentist appointment if I get out by 5:30…that’s pretty damn early but with the lights, it really doesn’t matter when I go out…and I charged up the lights yesterday so they should last through both rides since it is going to be dark until I’m done with the sun not coming up until after 8am…I did sleep okay so that helps but it’s almost 5 already so I need to get moving…had an okay day yesterday but really didn’t do much and today looks the same…it’s going to rain tonight and tomorrow so it looks like the first pass at the leaves will wait til Friday or Saturday and I’m hoping more of them will be down by then…it stayed over 50 overnight so I can go out this morning in light thermasuit and maybe even just a regular hat…I have new sunglasses for riding but won’t need them today with getting out early…don’t hurt too much so I’m not going to take anything for it…just gut it out when my legs start to hurt again which they will if the current pattern holds…the leg pain is normally only when I’m starting out but I’ve been back from Italy for over 3 weeks now and they should have adjusted to the time off already…oh, well…more later…
