This day dawned rather sunny and - with 50-60-ish temperatures, I had to saddle up for a ride, even if disgustingly short.
Just around the corner from the house, the railway was blocked by track maintenance vehicles.
I only had to cool my already-sore heels for a few minutes before the clanging arms arose and allowed the long line of vehicles to clear the crossing, after which I also rode through unmolested.
I visited two of my favorite establishments: Mountain Grove Builders' Supply and Miller's Electrical and Plumbing Supply. Miller's conduit was too long for me to safely haul on the trike, so I'll return there later with the dinosaur-burning Exploder. The Builder's Supply had exactly what I needed, and it fit into my rear pannier, so I chugged home with it.
The short run was not very hilly nor difficult but my always-sore feet were absolutely screaming about halfway home and got only worse as I rode in spite of varying my gears, foot positions, etc.
In spite of the fatigue and burning foot pain, I usually feel better after I cool off after even such a short ride as this one.
Aching feet are soaking in the foot-water-massage bubble machine as I close this epistle...
