The moon was pretty as it rose earlier tonight.
I drove to Bremen after work today and rode about 2 hours... I spent a -lot- of time on the bike.. even ran my bike out of gas at one point. I'm still uncomfortable in the air, so I had fun going around the corners & down the straights. I feel like I'm almost beginning to get the idea of cornering the right way.. like putting my wheels in a narrow berm and railing the bike around like on a slot. It's really hard.. so often I'd stand the bike up halfway through the corner which causes the front end to try and wash out. Standing the bike up in a corner is soooo lame.. ha.
Lots of fast people there tonight.. I had the most fun right after dusk when they turned the lights on. That's when the lighting is absolutely perfect (not too shadowy like later at night), and the moisture in the earth rises and makes a really good surface to ride over.
I'm glad to be home.. thinking about what to wear tomorrow.. I need shoes sooo bad.
