Biking in cool weather.  Hope it warms up before the winter weather sets in.  Rode to Leroy last Wednesday and on my usual route the semi-truck traffic was the most I have seen in years.  I suppose they are trying to avoid the construction zones along interstate 74.  Makes it a bit dicey on parts of 150 without a shoulder or rumble strips on the shoulder.  But it was a great day of riding and no mishaps to report.  Getting wanderlust to find another distance ride.  Probably not before next spring but we will see.  Also, got the knee checked.  It's not in real good shape (bone on bone with severe arthritis).  Doctors want to treat it with steroid shots before having it replaced.  We'll see.  Later
