night riding
5:50 am
i like riding at this time of night. the night owls have all turned in, the "early to bed, early to rise" crowd aren't quite ready to start their day. the birds aren't even up yet... it's like a secret shared by just a few.
the roads are nearly empty. traffic lights change before i get there. it's dark, but not too dark. the night air is cool, brisk, refreshing.
i think it's time to go to bed.
