Doesn't ring a bell (well, the PBJ does, but not the geezer).

I rode with a Paceline buddy as far north as Highland Park yesterday, then back south to Diversey Harbor before making the turn back to Evanston. I took the apron north along the lake for the first time in a long while. The dragonflies were amazing. I wasn't going anywhere near 23mph, so they had plenty of time to get out of my way.

Kinda cool to see the cloud part as I went through.
