What's with the wet roads? And orange mushrooms?Saturday night's weather report said Sunday would be a nice day, no rain. So I clean up my "nice" bike (Trek Emonda SLR) and ride it home from the shop Saturday night, leaving the new Boone 'Cross/rain bike behind. Sunday morning I wake up to... wet streets. Really wet. My plan for an early ride over Old LaHonda and up West Alpine, early because the Redwood City store would be open this particular Sunday (in advance of Christmas), was wrecked. Instead, I had to go down to the shop and grab my other bike, finally hitting the (wet) road with Kevin at about 8:30. We improvised an "ugly" ride, heading out Canada Road to 92, up 92 to Skyline, then south on Skyline to 84 and back down into Woodside. Pretty nice ride actually, but very, very thankful to be riding our rain bikes. 10-day outlook says dry though, so our nice bikes should get a workout soon! Oh, the photo at the top? If you've been riding much lately, you'll have noticed mushrooms are everywhere. What made these stand out was their color. Pretty bright orange. I've seen one here & there, but this was the first time I've seen a lot of them in one place. |
