Time is an odd creature. With the day very busy, I hop on the bike and take off, quickly pedaling down the road as if to hurry and get my ride in. It takes me a moment to realize that it doesn't matter how fast I pedal as my ride is determined by the clock, 60 minutes. I'm glad I chose time as the defining measure of my ride as opposed to distance. Today, I decided to do the Big Hill two times in anticipation of the 75 mile 71 Classic ride on Sunday. If distance was what determined my official ride, I would have been less inclined to tackle the Big Hill today.

And then there is light. I passed the door in the picture this morning after dropping Rachel off at school and heading for the recycling center. The sun was low and hitting the door just right. I should have pulled over and taken the picture then but I was afraid I might be late for Community Meals. So, I swung by later but it just wasn't the same. The sun now had a slight haze over it. And, notice the shadow from the overhang; it was not there when I first drove by as the sun was lower. This is the door for Word Work on Hill Ave.
So, on this busy day, where I now need to get ready for Rachel's soccer game this evening, I leave you with this close, very gentle, equine encounter.
Today's Ride: 63 mins. Miles: 11.07. 65 degrees. Miles YTD: 1,086.34
