All Kinds of Weather

Weather-wise, this little ride had it all;

-Sunshine

-Clouds

-Rain

Yup, I hit all three in just 15 miles of riding today, as I headed out late-afternoon to simply get a little exercise in the books before tonight's dinner, when I'm making my fettucine alfredo. That's not exactly a lo-cal dish, so I wanted to at least jump out into questionable weather to burn a few calories off pre meal.

My old shoes are starting to bother me. I was supposed to get new ones, remember? Got them too. Then they were not feeling right so I took them back, paid a stocking fee and was told they could order a wider size for me. That was in spring, and they told me the order should be in by July and that they would alert me when the shoes came in.

They never did.

Poor business model...and I am NOT talking about MY bike shop, CRANKED BIKE STUDIO. In fact, they were the ones who sent me to a rival shop in Appleton because Cranked could not repair the shoe I have and they do not carry the brand.

I guess I will be switching brands! Not looking forward to that. But the fastener on my left foot will not tighten, and riding with one shoe that is a little loose is getting old. The shoes are over a decade old too!
