Today I’ll be going on a regular ride vs. the longer one I did last Thursday. You see, the body takes longer to recuperate these days. While I feel great, I know once I get on the bike and start riding up steeper hills, I’ll feel it. No matter. Maybe next week.

June Gloom is starting early this year it seems. Until I lived in southern California, I had never heard the term ‘June Gloom.’ Basically the hot inland area draws the fog in from the ocean and we have fog (like can’t see more than a couple feet in front of you at times fog) throughout the month of June. Everywhere else I’ve lived, June was the first real month of summer. Not here. We bundle up until July.

Ha, so much for summer…..
