As difficult as it is to get out early in the cold mornings, sometimes the sunrise really puts on a show like it did today. I was going through my morning bike prep work when I looked up and say the sky getting orange. I took a few minutes to walk across the street and snap a couple pics. One thing I'm really enjoying about my Wandrer miles is all the interesting things I come across while riding. Today it was this random cul-de-sac that was in the middle of nowhere. There was no asphalt leading up to it and only half of it was complete. I had to stop and snap a pic to share. I was taking in the "sights" while riding through a light industrial area when I spy some famous golden arches. Found out later it's the local franchise headquarters. On another street I see a business named "Hoshizaki America" and think to myself "WTF is that?!" Just read that they make commercial ice makers and refrigeration units. After seeing all these crazy things I was just ear to ear smiles with this adventure in my own backyard. Great rides today despite the cold. Left work a little earlier than usual with permission from the boss. Would have left even earlier if I didn't have an unknown to me student working in one of my labs. If something would have happened to them I would have felt awful if they reached out to me and I never answered because I was on the bike. Now for a couple days off work, but do have a group ride tomorrow followed by my usual breakfast ride on Friday. After that, no clue. 10.28 new miles -- From https://Wandrer.earth Mostly cloudy-Clear, 39°F-62°F, Feels like 39°F-62°F, Humidity 38%-15%, Wind WSW 2mph-ENE 3mph - by https://Klimat.app -- https://myWindsock.com Report -- Weather Impact: 4.1% Headwind: 46% @ 3.4-8.5mph Longest Headwind: 31m 35s Air Speed: 16.9mph Temp: 40.1-59.9°F Precip: 0% @ 0 Inch/hr -- END --
