102nd outdoor ride of 2022 - Saturday, 10/29/2022

2022 mileage: 3777.9

After taking yesterday off because I was just inexplicably tired out, I planned to do a long ride this morning (30-plus miles for the round trip to Matthei Botanical Gardens). However, when I left at 8:00, it was quite miserable ... a heavy blanket of fog was blanketing all of southeast Michigan, and the moist air combined with the 34° temperature to make me quite aware that summer is now long gone.

By a few miles into the ride, even though it's supposed to reach 60° and be sunny this afternoon, I had changed my plans from that long ride to doing my routine route (and just trying to survive it). Going around the Platt/Packard Square, then (13.6 miles in 1:53), I was absolutely delighted to finish and return home.
