Summer eve

chatting with a neighbour, with the sky lit up just before sunset. I love summer.

the sun sets, directly in line with the trench carved on top of the sidewalk, through the most recent layers of snow.

sunset as I rode home this afternoon. I’m wishing I was about 1,000km in that direction right now…

the bus out to Tuscany decided to skip a few, so there was close to 100 people huddled in the cold, waiting to get home.

the sun drops between a chinook-powered gap in the clouds, before setting on the Winter Solstice. It gets better.

the setting sun peaks through a gap in the cloud cover, before dropping behind the Rockies.

a beautiful afternoon to ride. It was +3˚C, and the roads were pretty clear. Great for some thinkin’ time…

the bowmont pathway is scraped nice and clear – the remaining packed snow gives good traction under studded tires, and the icy spots are flat enough to not be a problem. I’m getting used to winter riding again – riding with the feet clipped in for more of the ride, and working the rear brake more. fun stuff!

early sunset, long angles, and layers of cloud combine to produce a gothic prairie sunset sky.
