Question of the day: Which is rarer: an annular solar eclipse or a weekend day without rain?
Well, the celestial event wouldn’t have been visible in my part of the US, even if meteorological ones would’ve permitted it.
So the eclipse keeps that title—for now. Moreover, we yesterday we had—wait for it—a beautiful Fall day that kept the “Sun” in “Sunday.”
(I’ve heard that someone pointed to the glowing orb in the sky, nudged the man next to her and asked, “What’s that, Mulder?”)
So, I did what any right-thinking cyclist would do. Yes, I went for a ride; specifically to Greenwich, Connecticut on La-Vande, my King of Mercia.
Not only was the weather delightful in the way only the day after a rainstorm can be; everything—from the early fall hues to roads that seemed hewn for riding—seemed to conspire for a great ride.
Even the path through Pelham Bay Park seemed to be made for an October ride.
