Spooky

I rode 18 miles last night in the dark on my road bike. I stopped on the way home from work and bought a small LED headlight, more for safety then for illumination. I rode on these back roads that have no houses and no street lamps. Man, it was SPOOKY. I haven't been back there much and in the dark, your senses get a little disoriented. On top of it, this area is so void of development that most of the streets don't have street signs. I had to kind of ride around until I found a bigger intersection that had signs so I could tell where I was at and which way to go. I might not do that again. 

I am trying to be newly inspired and prepare myself for road season. It seems however, more and more difficult lately to find the time to ride during the week.
