83rd ride of 2017 - Thursday, 6/15/2017

Total mileage for 2017: 1400.3

Michelle needed our car today, so the only way I was going to be able to get to church to practice piano was to ride there. Glad for this option, I left home at 7:00, staying on walks all the way (except for one brief stretch of Oak Valley where construction has the sidewalk closed), and rode to church for a good session of practice, interspersed with some time devoted to composing on a new piece I just began last night (for chorus, strings, flute, oboe, trumpet, horn, and tuba).

After spending a good chunk of the morning at church, I pedaled over to the nearby Cottage Inn and had a small personal pizza (the Nino) for an early lunch. When I left early this morning, it was already 68°; when I got back home, about 11:30, it was 79°. So today's ride was modest, but productive nonetheless, and the 10.0 miles (in 1:15) pushed me over the 1400-mile mark for the year.
