MonoMonday Challenge - Close-Up

Today is the 1 year anniversary of the MonoMonday Challenge initiated by Paladian and now continuing with Skeena.  I've tried to be fairly regular since I first learned about it and a lot of fun.

I got out for another ride today.  The weather is staying sunny though fairly cool... about 7°C for my ride today.  A breeze has blown out all the smog over the weekend and we have a clear view to the snow covered mountains for a day until life in the urban jungle fades the view from memory again.

So this is my Close-Up for today framing the mountains through the bicycle.  This visual play on depth really brings the mountains up near.

Sore butt, sore legs, no wind in my lungs, no umph in the saddle and slow...  yes, this counts as the second ride.  I should start to see some improvement in the next few rides hopefully.  Already my attitude has taken a swing for the good!

Just for fun, here is the short list to my MM contributions this past year:
