Woke up a few times last night due to whistling winds, but it cleared the clouds. Over the last 4 days, 3 were sunny and clear, 40ish. Rode all 3 days. Very glad we west-coasters don't have to pickle our bikes.

Something a bit strange I've noticed is that after a couple of weeks of no riding, when I come back on, I FEEL more at one with the bike than when I was riding at will in the summer. It did not diminish my skill, but it heightened the emotion - could this be it? But I do seem to ride better and more spiritedly than if it's become routine.
