Fall Weather Riding... The Best? The Worst? Or Meh?

I'm a sucker for fall. Cool, crisp air combined with beautiful leaves is a welcome change from hot days in summer. How do you feel about it? What do you look forward to in Fall? Or if it's not a favorite... ?

Here's an autumn gear guide and some basic 101 tips for riding in Fall.

One last note... it's getting darker so definitely time to have your lights charged and ready to go for the ride home. I had a close call last night riding down a hill in the dark (rain) when I hit a bump. Not good.

I do enjoy a crisp morning ride to the station. Not too cold, just with a bit of a chill in the air and I'm bundled up enough not to be cold or hot. Just kinda perfect and enjoyable to see the beautiful trees changing. This morning was exactly that for me.

I rode on Saturday and it was what I would consider, a beautiful fall day. The colors were amazing. The temperature was just good enough where I only needed a few extra layers, some of which were removed later in the ride.
