Off to buy a new saddle … but the shop is closed Tuesday March 13, 2018 It’s a bike ride, actually a backup, just in case I don’t do the intended theme “Going Around in a Circle”.

It was going to get breezy this afternoon and a series of rainstorms would be moving in behind the wind, so only thing on my agenda this morning was a ride.
