At the turn round point, I sat for about 10 minutes before starting back.
Yep, I'm retired. My wife is still working but even if she were retired too, she's a late riser. I have the mornings to myself.

The problem is not that there is evil in the world, the problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?

Cold to ride in the early morning? - Victor Khomenko 12:03:34 09/14/21 (4)
Last Saturday it was pretty chilly, even as I started at 9am. So the first 20-30 minutes it was uncomfortable. So I bought arms warmer, that you can take off after a while.

  Also a really good Pearl Izumi jacket. Light weight, looks good, very warm, can be rolled up and stuffed in the tail bag and not get wrinkled.
  Long bib pants, too.
  I had the arm warmers on this morning but pulled them off when I got to the turn around.

    ...tons of gear, but I foolishly sold most of it 16 years ago, when I stopped riding. Now trying to buy it again and with bad luck. Bought pants, that are "sized XL" - I was not even able to pull it over my ankle, they truly were sized "extra Asian". I see now some gear has official Asian sizing.

      The clothes are too big. XL is too big, L is borderline.
      I picked up a Patagonia fly fishing shirt--they're excellent for riding--got an L instead of a medium and it fits me like a sack.

        seemed sized for a child. Definitely varied some among manufacturers, though.
