chilly cycling

Summer's gone, that's for sure: already I'm cycling to work in my Autumn sweatpants, long since hopeless stained with chain oil.
Tonight on the way home from work I stopped to pick up half a dozen cans of "Zevia" cola, which I'm enjoying as a sugar- and aspartame-free variety of my favourite cold delivery system for caffeine. It was just about the right temperature for cycling by the time I was heading home, with lovely pre-dusk colours and a dry cool temperature. Prematurely cool or not, sometimes the weather's really great in this city.
