It's a perfect match to my own Trek 7100 that I purchased two years ago when I first started this blog.
So anyways we have matching bicycles!
We've been making it a habit to get out and ride 3-4 days each week in the evening when the weather starts to cool. Kelly hasn't biked for a while, but with every bike ride we go further and further as she builds her endurance back up. The land is rather flat out here so hills aren't a problem.
For the past several days it has been grotesquely hot... in the 90s w/ a heat index of 100°, but last night it cooled back down into the 70s. Wonderful weather for a bike ride.
To the south were a bunch of swirling cirrostratus clouds. They were catching the light from the setting sun, changing colors from orange to pink to purple.
We stopped once we reached Cross Creek & Tontogany Rd. to watch the sunset.
Camera phones can be very convenient sometimes, especially when treated with such a lovely evening. I had to stop on our ride back home to capture the moment.
Between the red & purple clouds, blue sky, green corn & trees, yellow wheat fields, and orange sunset and riding along with my Kelly I really felt peaceful and wonderfully grateful for being able to live out in the country.
I'm hoping that everyone else is able to enjoy moments like this. I am so lucky.
