I've been meaning to get down to Douglas, not for the vitamin D, but for a nice vintage hotel stay:

It was 57 F this morning. Been raining off and on all day. Temperature has been dropping slowly since mid-morning. Possible flash freeze tonight. Driving could be interesting tomorrow, not that I am planning any.

Some do. They also populate medical offices, and inhabit forums, questioning my quality MOTDs.

Riding in those conditions should not be on anyone's radar screen.

Yeah, I believe this is one of the big issues in psychology research - self-identification. But self-identification could itself be interesting to study.

This makes me think of my time in Ithaca. It snowed a lot less than I'd expected. I'd read about big accumulations in Rochester or Syracuse, and we'd get a couple inches. Cross country skiing was really popular, but it never seemed like there was enough snow to justify it.

I've biked through Rochester, Ithaca, Penn Yan, Wolcott, Geneva, Moravia, Auburn, Cortland. I've biked everywhere, man. I've biked everywhere.

I've ridden through goatheads, riding through Horseheads probably isn't as bad.

Horseheads is a town in New York, just north of Elmira. When I took US 15 to get from home to Ithaca, I'd see the signs for "Elmira/Horseheads", before I got on NY13. Later, I took more of a back way, up US 220, which in retrospect, driving a 14 year old MGB that was mostly running on 3 cylinders ("Fill the oil, and check the gas!") was nuts. I relied far too much on the whims of Fate, Abingdon, and Joseph Lucas as a young man.

Its weird. You are about 10 feet off the water when at the helm. You don’t really feel the water, waves or wind like you do on a mono. Prefer a mono with a fin.

We've chartered a few, but none that size. It has been described as like driving a coffee table.

But, great party deck for 8 people (plus crew). And, the chef is wonderful.

Guess I should get a ride in. Can't decide between MTB, road, or just a couple hours pedalling this around, as seen on today's burrito run
