Damn, nice! I thought I was on pace for a 5,000 mile year, but then these past six weeks I just haven't had chances to keep the riding up. Feh.

A blog entry about my LBS...

Not a good picture of Lori, actually. She's much more energetic than that.
And then they've had this one on their website for a long time...

Not even 1000 miles. Bah. On that ride something happened which hasn't for a while. I was riding on the paved shoulder northbound on the Winterbourne Elora Road when a fair way up ahead I saw a car pull out from the oncoming traffic to pass other oncoming traffic. They were still in that lane when I passed the group, but I think they were keeping slow and steady because of me and delaying their actual pass.
The weather was actually warmer than my previous December ride. In contrast to that time, I wore regular gloves and no ear warmer and never felt cold.
On both rides I took a little headlight, held on my handlebars with its built-in bungee thing, and a tail-light held around my snack food and kept inside my rear pocket. I used neither, but it seems good to get in the habit of taking them. I'm still not sure where I'd securely mount the tail light, nor how long its rather frail-looking elastic strap will last. Attached to my snack food but hanging out the pocket seems reasonable, but I'll not be surprised or devastated if it falls off.
I kept meaning to mention I bought something bicycle-related and retro from Canadian Tire a few weeks ago. Something I will probably actually eventually use. What could it (they) have been?

I was wondering what was going to make it interesting.

Wow, AG2R La Mondiale have managed, somehow, to look even uglier for 2016
Maybe it won't look so bad with short legs and arms, but they must pay their riders a LOT

Nope. Nope. Nope.
