Tonight I am back on the Raleigh M800 mountain bike. When I left for the ride the sky was just beginning to have the sunset look. As I rode further the scattered clouds began to turn dark gray from the night approaching but with the sun not over the horizon yet the edge o of the clouds were a pinkish-orange.

The temperature at the end of the ride was 80 degrees and the easy SE 10 mph breeze was appreciated.
Joggers and walkers without lights continue to be a problem. Maybe they can see themselves better than I can in the dark.
