The most beautiful day of the year

I've wanted to start this thread so many times this year. . . there have been so many beautiful, glorious days this year and each time I think "this is probably the last really beautiful day" and then another comes along. Take yesterday morning-- what a wonderful combination of warm moist air and all the smells of autumn.

Bouncing this thread to the top heretoforth will be considered a declaration that said bouncer considers the day upon which the bouncing occurs to be the most beautiful day of the year.

Today wasn't one of them, but we'll hopefully get a few more nice ones. Here's a couple pics from a ride on a nice day in June.

Today's pretty darned special. Enjoyed a nice ride to lunch today, aside from the deep puddles. I'll take the deep puddles over 5 degrees any day.

The only thing missing from my morning commute was a foot massage. Everything else was...PERFECT!

Today was more perfect than yesterday! These days seem to make up for much of our miserable past weather.

Me? Lisa, I will, on this occasion, agree with you to make your last statement false.

Or true? Contrary to the contrary? Contrarian inception? :-)

Didn't ride today but yesterday was simply lovely. I rode in the evening and a T shirt was just fine while the sun was up. On the way home,when it was dark, that T shirt was supplemented with arm warmers. On both rides I felt a slight chill for the first five minutes and was warm but not overheated the rest of the way. I was a little sticky but not drenched on arrival. There was minimal wind and maximal happiness. I wanted to press Control "c" so I can paste those conditions when I pine for them next February.
