One of my kids "borrowed" my iPod and when I left yesterday and today it was buried, so no podcasts.
The weather is fantastic here, with blue sky and warm winds. After not biking for six days, during my ride in yesterday I felt strong as an ox and was probably pumped up from watching the Tour de France. I also think the new cassette and chain are creating much better power conversion so I can go faster. The bike computer displays my speed and because this is a constant motivator to keep up the pace I'm certainly going a shade faster on average.
I left at 6 o'clock this morning before the sun rose above the horizon because I had an early teleconference. I think I need to do this everyday in order to avoid too much sun and traffic as well as to just enjoy the view.
2,630 kilometers year to date. My clear weather goal is to get into Vancouver within 40 minutes and to get home within 55 minutes. If it rains then everything changes because the additional wet weather gear slows down the cadence considerably.
