It rained early here, then again mid-morning and just now is getting ready to do it again. I didn't ride but in honor of the French holiday I did do a bicycle project. Many will know that LOOK is a French manufactured frame, so I have a French bicycle, working on my French bicycle on quatorze juillet seems way appropriate.
Hint: Another French company is involved.
Later on in the day I discovered a website that was offering live coverage of the national fireworks (or as the website put it, le feu d'artifice) at la Tour Eiffel. I shared the website address with my French interpreter so I am guessing she saw them too. It went pretty well until the counter indicated 20,000 viewers were watching on-line and after that coverage was intermittent.
I went to the gas station today. I last was there on June 16 and had driven 307 miles since then. In the same period of time I have ridden my bicycle 630 miles. I feel strong, sometimes I even feel fast.

Well, I'm not Bueller, but I'll hazard a guess. The orange color coding is a clue? You only ride Michelin rubber, and those tires were blue the last time I saw them.
The joys of summer and retirement. I don't keep track, but I'm certain that I ride a lot more than I drive for several months of the year. Interesting thing to check.
