We did it—we rolled over 3000 miles on this mild Halloween night. What a sweet treat!

The temperature was on the cool side, 45 degrees, and the wind was blowing but we enjoyed this short ride along our peaceful country road. We had fun hunting for pumpkins along our route but unfortunately didn’t find a single carved pumpkin—Google helped me out here.
The farmers continue to be busy in the fields and we keep our eyes open for the large machinery that shares the road with us this time of year.  Most are friendly and wave as they pass.

We have been fortunate to have biked on many holidays this year including Labor Day, Fourth of July, Memorial Day—I wonder if we will be able to continue this trend and bike Thanksgiving and Christmas? All we need are ice-free roads, a little sunshine and a temperature above 30 degrees. Bring on November.
October Total Miles: 415.24
Accumulative 2012 Biking Miles: 3003.85
