Holy cow was it beautiful this morning. Bright bright sun, no wind at all.

Beautiul sunrise this morning - saw only five other cyclists on LSP from Ardmore to the Loop. And was lucky enough to meet two fellow bicycle commuters in the loading bay of our office building on the way home. Happy days.

Is it wrong that I don't really remember my commute home last night?

It felt like I was on "auto-pilot".

Maybe I need to change up the route to spark up the "ol brain" to make the commute more memorable......

Or maybe I am just getting old?

Is 44 old? I have never thought that I would get old. (sad)

LOL ?

Old? Certainly not! Low blood sugar?

I have to take issue with your interpretation of Zen. Zen is the opposite of auto-pilot.

I meant it as a meditative state that some cyclists enter into from time to time.

From Wikipedia: The word Zen is derived from the Japanese pronunciation of the Middle Chinese word 禪 Dzyen (Modern Mandarin: Chán), which in turn is derived from the Sanskrit word dhyāna,^[3] which can be approximately translated as "absorption" or "meditative state".^[4]

I feel like if the temp is below 20 I'm so much slower on my bike. Anyone else feel that way? I keep checking my wheels to see if my brake pads are rubbing on them but it seems to be me alone. :(
