Gene! Sand at the entrance to Belmont Harbor?!? I don't even know how that could happen. I will be over there later this week and will have to have a look.

Yup. Inside the entrance and in many other spots. I have seen this happen at Montrose Beach pier at the curved part, but never anywhere else.

Yesterday was my first day of riding in 14 days. A miserable cold kept me off my bike. How great to be back even if I'm still not 100% healthy.

What do you kids wear in the cold weather such as this for your legs? I've been rocking basically long underwear under my jeans, and its been fine, but I feel pretty sluggish.

My wife bought me a new pair of wind pants from REI for Christmas (Novarra brand, not sure of the product name). They are lined and have an extra panel in the front for more wind blockage. They are somewhat baggier than normal cycling tights, but not so baggy that you need pants straps. I wore them for the first time today.and they worked fine.

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?
