Once again it is time to start layering up and down as the weather gets cooler in the morning especially. As many I check the temperature in the morning to check how to dress.
Thursday it was 46F and unseasonably cool. I packed up a hi-viz hoodie to wear after breaking into a sweat on my way to my intersection.
Good thing I did because 10-15 minutes in to my work, my sweat became chilling, cold and very uncomfortable.
The hoodie saved the day as it warmed me up and made me comfortable again. On the way home I packed the hoodie in my trailer and rode off in a light long-sleeve, dry-wick sport shirt.
Physical activity, including cycling and walking, leads to less incidence of depression and better cognition. Inter alia riding keeps us trim and sharp.
I improved immeasurably my Monday morning today, the start of my work week, by leaving early, taking my time and stopping to appreciate and shoot a scintillating sunrise over Lake Monona. No regrets stopping to take a unique and beautiful photo.
