I keep reminding my coworkers, “Now is the time. Don’t miss it!” And by saying it over and over, I remind myself. Now is the time that summer’s oppressive heat is neutralized. It is the time of fall colors (such as they are around here). Now is the time Texans crave the entire year. It doesn’t last long, and we mustn’t miss it.
So I took the country bike out for some country cycling over the Thanksgiving holiday. I don’t know what else to say about this photo dump except everything was just about perfect, and the images probably speak for themselves. Thankfully, I didn’t miss it.
I wonder if I can squeeze in one more S24O before winter…
Pondero 
Nicely done! This is the only time we get.
Squeeze in one more S24O! I’ll be doing it this weekend, but I’m cheating: it’ll be at a heated cabin!
Beautiful weather; glad you got out to enjoy it. Look out, though. Colder weather is just now passing through us and headed your way. I don’t think it will last all that long. Maybe you can still get in that S24O
So much blue in the first photo I thought your prairie roads had taken you all the way to the coast. Beautiful.
Was this a two stop brew up? Every time I see that dust green saluki I love the color. Makes me anxious to get mine back on the road!
Actually, there are photos from two rides over the Thanksgiving weekend. The bike is a perfect all-rounder for my use.
