Yesterday was hot for around here. 84˚F at 9,000 feet. Riding home the thunderclouds that had been building since noon broke loose. Unlike most storms, this one didn’t drop the temperature into the 40’s or 50’s. It stayed in the upper 70’s. I left my rain jacket in my bag and delighted in the wet soaking my cotton shirt, cooling me off. Combined with the delicious scents of rain, ozone, flashing lightening and rumbling thunder coming down and mixing with earth, sage, flowers, pine, and aspen, it was a veritable feast.
This morning, the sun was out, the ground moist and pocked , fresh and giving off the smell of summer loam of long decay, pine, and growth in the warmth. Pockets of air still cool from the moist night air tantalized as at rode through them, lingering by slowing my pedaling. After weeks of hot and dusty grit, these two rides were spectacularly refreshing.
