What a great day to ride in the Lowcountry, just plain awesome! The temperature was in the mid 70's, low humidity, and hardly any ocean breeze to hit you in your face on your return trip back home. Today was a day that allowed you to get into some kind of serious rhythm to hold your speed. A perfect day to set best times for your marked course. Its days like today that make cycling one of the coolest activities that anyone who loves the outdoors can do. Kind of makes you wish that the state had a day set aside just for riding your bike around the countryside.
I figure we have about another month left before these kinds of days are behind us. Then we will have to wait till spring. I should feel fortunate because my fellow riders north of the Mason Dixon line are just about already done for the season. They can go ride, of course, but they have to start loading up on cold weather apparel because with the speed it makes it tough to enjoy the wind you generate, it gets a little chilly. So lets all think about asking our state legislators to set up a law to have one weekend day a month for just riding. It just might clear their heads!
