The Other Bum

A very good ride. We started late so we ended in darkness. Both Marty and I had decent lights so we were quite visible to following traffic. Marty always me and that's a good thing. Instead of starting from Pepper Pike, we started from MetroHealth on Chagrin Blvd. I directed the final mile on a route that I had learned from navigating in my car. The route avoided a lot traffic on Chagrin Blvd.

Ride to Tame Rabbit

Pleasant ride although some drivers needed to lay on the horn. Can't please 'em all. Started cold - about 29° - but reached 42° by the end of the ride. When we rode out of Chagrin Falls, we had to get on the sidewalk. A UPS truck was making a delivery and the car and truck traffic was backed up. Made good time on the sidewalk although there were a number of icy spots which required some caution. Tame Rabbit was great as usual - coffee and avocado toast. Hit the spot.
