219th ride of 2016 - Wednesday, 11/30/2016

TOTAL MILEAGE FOR 2016 - 3508.5

Today is another stupendous day—almost unheard of weather for the last day of November. The record high for Ann Arbor on this date is 63°. When I began my ride at noon, I enjoyed 53° sunshine, which warmed to 56° by the time I finished. I only rode one round trip to Marsh Park today, though, finishing the 10 miles in 1:12—and at that, exceeded my goal of 3500 miles for the year.

I decided to keep it short because I was drawn back to read a book I just began. All my life I've been fascinated by the theme of time travel, and this hefty Stephen King novel, 11/23/63, deals with a man who finds an unexpected wormhole to allow him to travel back to 1962, and the book is about his plans to travel back and prevent the Kennedy assassination. But I don't have to issue a spoiler alert—I'm not far enough into it yet to have the vaguest idea how it will turn out.
