Ain't No Sunshine

Ahhh yes, another ticket to the shit show. Had I known ahead of time I probably would have never gone out in the first place.

Here's the deal.

--Wake up at 3:30 a.m.

--Prep radio show until 5

--Shower/drive to radio station

--Do three-hour radio talk show

--Drive home

--Zoom work meeting at 11:30

--Change into riding clothes while listening to Zoom work meeting.

The hope here was to get out for some exercise while the getting was good...in other words while the sun was still out ahead of rain, storms and then very cold air. One last shot.

When I went up to my cycling room to change (and of course pay attention to that work Zoom meeting) the sun was out and if felt warm....upper 50's and only light wind.

By the time I came back downstairs to head out the clouds had moved in. No sun to be found. Once I got on the road it was flat-out cold if you ask me.

Yuk.

This wasn't what I had hoped for.

So I told myself to simply get to the 10-mile mark and then pull off, which is exactly what I did.

Better than nothing I guess.
