Could not catch a light + also opted to not sleep very much = not outstanding time. Weather was beautiful - cooler, and overcast enough to give nice visibility/contrast.

Biking 1:02:25 15.59 mi (15.0 mph) +39m

Caught a train out of the gate, but the real reason for missing an hour was legs still a bit heavy after Sunday.
4 PM
Biking 1:01:02 15.55 mi (15.3 mph) +80m
ahr:142 max:163 shoes: Long Haul Trucker
Flirted with an hour, but it is a battle to dig back from that stop sign-riddled opening 12 mph through the D. Fun though!!
Things I will not mention to my wife:
Car stopped on a side street for their stop sign, but then proceeded to drive out in front of me with absolutely zero indication they were aware of my existence. 3-5 mph faster and I could have smacked the car with a hand. Should I invest in an air horn? thinking_emoji.png
Car considered right hooking me for an exit from Hines, but then thought better of it. Just some dramatic braking. Probably would have been clear had they gone for it.
No wonder the security guard who chats with me while getting ready in the parking lot said to stay safe!

The genius or folly of the originally planned route was that my old commute hit right about the moment I might get sleepy, tired, or suddenly be two mph below pace, providing a too-tempting shortcut.
