i slept late this morning and didn't get out of bed until 5:53. i dressed quickly and got my bike rolling by 6:00. crazy, huh?
on the way out, i noticed some patches of fog, but nothing terribly thick - just a bit of mist here and there with clear skies above - so i kept riding. i rode to the far side of danville and turned around.
the wind which had been in my face was now at my back. i rode faster. up and over the danville overpass. across the flats lickety split. down drouhard hill and toward the river. when i hit the river bridges, the patchy fog became a light-consuming wall of blackness. for a short time, i could see only as far as my headlight shone. then i was in the clear again. a mile or so later i hit another patch of inky darkness. looking up i could see stars. looking ahead...nothing!
the shroud of fog was rolled back as i entered argonia's city limits. i pedaled my bike home to safety. (16.05 miles @ 16.5mph)
