81 at the Cattle Barn, quite warm for mid-September and as is usual for days when the temperature is quite a bit above or below the average, today was VERY windy.
Did not affect the cow even the slightest bit.
Cows in Fall:
The front tire, the one that I can always see, is starting to make me nervous. Which means probably that the rear tire is worse. Ignore worn tires at peril of being an hour's ride from home with a beside the road puncture. We all know how much we hate that.
Even uglier is that the bar tape is literally falling off the bar at the right hand shifter.
I have had bar tape get ugly before, this is a first time of bar tape actually failing to cover the bar. I promise a photo.
If only I can get those four more rides I need to not ever again care about the bar tape on this particular bicycle.

And that is why I like fall more than spring. Nice light and shadows on the new cow photo, too.
I need six more rides on any bike to match last year's mileage -- never a sure thing, you gotta ride 'em to count 'em, and all of that. It's a little bit of motivation to get out and ride, though.
There's a lot of El Nino talk out there. It would be nice to have a later, milder winter for a change. I'm not counting on it, though.
Bar tape, eh? Sounds manageable.
That is a great photo of the cows - the fall light is perfect.
Sounds like that bar tape can't be ignored any longer. Fortunately, I think you know how to take care of that.
I have a lot to catch up on being without internet service for quite a few days. I am glad you got to ride 4 days in a row.
Oh, I forgot to say COWS!!
