I rode today. Windy, but got a tailwind most of the way. My ride home will sick if the wind doesn't change direction, though.

Also, I saw a cabbie weave through a bunch of people crossing the street, almost running three of them over.

Our morning tail wind promises to be our afternoon head wind!

Even though it wasn't all that cold I didn't even see another bike on the lake until Belmont Harbor.  All told maybe six commuters.

So, the headwind for the am was crazy fierce at times. To all of those reverse of my ride, enjoy the tailwind. For all of those going north and south, be careful by the 18th bridge and the police station. Huge puddle of sitting water. Cars no likey me occupying 18 to avoid the bath and I had difficulty kicking it with the wind.

Nice southeast wind this morning coming down Elston. It was a bit difficult to balance on tiptoes at some of the lights! I actually took my longer "scenic route" to my office and it took me as little time as my "short route!"

The ride in this morning was great, nice to have the tailwind. The ride back to Morton Grove this afternoon might be another story (re: wind).

No wind, blue sky, just enough of a chill in the air.

I was awake until three last night watching reruns of Doctor Who on Youtube.  So this morning I was very tired, took the train and wore the Tom Baker scarf a coworker made for me last year.

It was beautiful out there on the lake this morning. Plus I got to see my favorite doggie swim club at the curve.

Overheated a fair bit this morning. When I got up, my phone said it was (I think) 26, so I dressed accordingly. By the time I left the house it was more like 33. I had to stop part way and delayer a bit. The strong headwinds on the LFT didn't help either. Looks like I'll get a nice push going home though.
