A failed weather forecast...........thankfully!

I brought my vehicle in for a change of spark plugs yesterday afternoon.  Despite saying they'd get to it yet yesterday, this morning it was still not ready.  I had a Special Districts of Oregon Legislative Breakfast to attend this morning, and it was only 2.5 miles away, so I biked there.

The weather forecast called for rain beginning late last night and continuing today.  Thankfully, the pavement was still dry as I pedaled out.  I was on the fixed gear bike, wearing a bright yellow cycling jacket over street clothes. Rain would have made it much harder to stay "business ready".

After a few hours our meeting was done.  I had left this morning forgetting my phone, and the shop was supposed to call me when my vehicle was finished.  Presuming that they would surely be trying to contact me to let me know I could pick up my vehicle, I detoured by the shop to check on it.

Alas, they hadn't started on it yet.  I rode home and picked up my phone.    A few hours later I rode back and picked up my vehicle.

Last week I was feeling bad that I had biked so few miles in the month of February.  I was thinking that  I prerode my birthday ride route just a couple of days before my birthday. Alas, I see that I prerode the route on the last day of January, giving me a whopping ZERO miles in the month of February!

So despite only getting 10 miles today, it was 10 miles more than I got last month. :-(
