6:18 AM; Hamline Midway/Como Park
-0.7 °C; Clear
Saw frost glittering on the pavement as soon as I got going. Was mindful of this as I was taking my turns, a couple of years ago, I wiped out when turning from the UMN Transit Way onto 25th Ave SE. When I rode down the hill at the Guthrie, I saw the boardwalk covered in white. Slowed down already and knew that I'd be safe if I didn't have to stop suddenly or swerve to avoid an obstacle, neither did seem likely. With that, I saw one of the regular dog walkers starting to walk into my path. I touched my brakes and felt my front wheel go, fortunately, the bike stabilized. I was already slow enough to easily avoid man and beast, who were walking very leisurely at a very low angle across the trail. Thinking it might be time to put the bike away for the year. Or take the RR service road to Stone Arch Bridge ...

Pretty normal ride home. Didn't know what to make of the wind but it turned out to be mostly in my favor, coming pretty much from due south.

Hamline Midway Short
6:15 PM; Hamline Midway/Frogtown
7.1 °C; Partly cloudy
Short walk because I spent 1:30 hrs finishing up the leaves in the backyard, the dogs keeping me patient albeit a little weary (because of the lawnmower) company. They were elated when we finally got going. Walked around Hamline U campus, enjoying this mild evening. Dogs did not seem to resent that hadn't gotten any off-leash time.
