Sleepy Ride In, Today

One of the fringe benefits of riding to work is that you arrive awake and alert.

Usually.

Today, as has been the case all week, it was cool and damp as I rode in (and dark, of course). I did have the added attraction of thunder and lightning, but the rain had moved on through.

I was a bit sluggish on the bike, right out of the gate, but that's normal. What wasn't normal was that, upon arrival at the lab, after 35 minutes of riding, I was still yawning and having trouble keeping the old eyelids open.

I think I'll get a recumbent bike so that I can nap on the way in!
