I like to ride my bike.......

I can hardly believe it is the middle of November. I think the temps were in the mid sixties here in PA yesterday so I figured I better get one last short sleeve ride in before the blast freezer weather moves in.

I like starting out on late afternoon rides and finishing them up under the cover of darkness. I run a 10 watt bar light, a 5 watt helmet light to get driver's attention at intersections and lots of rear LED's.

I also took some pictures of random stuff as I was riding. I stopped over on the Lancaster side of the Susquehanna to take the picture of the sunset and by the time I got back into York-it was getting fairly dark.......it was a nice ride.

I was reading up on the French rioters and the last sentence of this article got my attention. They burn 100 cars on an average Saturday night? Holy shit.

By the way, Pat is still a dick.

My folks were up in NYC this weekend, my mom took lots of pictures, I will be uploading some of them to my Flickr account sometime today or tomorrow.

That's about it..........thanks for reading.

I liked the photos of your ride. i don't know why, but there's something sad about seeing empty bleachers in the fall.

Dig it. I was riding by them and I thought the same exact thing about the bleachers.

I also enjoyed the photos and can definitely relate to the idea of getting out just before winter arrives - especially since a winter storm arrived here this afternoon (I'm listening to the sound of sleet on the windows) Also, I appreciate that you are one of those people who don't just exercise outdoors but actually take in the surroundings.

100 cars torched on a Saturday? I wanna party with you, cauxbois.

Missed the weekend ride due to the darn leaves...
