The lights are on, but nobody's home ...

Actually, it was the opposite this morning.  Alarm was set for 5.19am and I woke up bright-eyed at 5.18am.  I immediately realized, however, that I had forgotten to plug-in/charge my head lamp the night before.  That meant that I would ride for an hour and a half in the pitch black.  Bummer.  Abort?  Never.  Luckily, I was able to ride next to Johnny most of the way.  The ride down Camino Alto is normally sketchy.  Add darkness, wet roads and keeping a proximity (but not too close) to my lighted partner and it made for a super slow decent.  The sunrise made the ride more comfortable by about 6.45am.  Now if we could just do something about the 41 degrees.  Sheesh.
