When I rode today at 12:15, it was already a balmy 58° (so that I was very comfortable riding in short sleeves), and it had had the 60° mark by the time I finished. I wanted to do two round trips to Marsh Park, and was making excellent time (one of my best in ages), but late in the ride a light rain began to fall, and it was projected to intensify as the afternoon proceeded, so I allowed myself to settle for a single round trip, completing the 10 miles in 55 minutes.
It is not as if I have nothing to do with the extra time, however—I'm making good progress on a new piece I just began this morning for the male chorus in which my brother sings, with accompaniment of piano, horn, and cello, and setting a poem of Langston Hughes.
