Hey, I LOVE this fall weather. I can climb hills on my bike without steam coming from my head! It did feel a bit chilly at times, but that was a welcome change.

Glad I'm not the only one!

I do complain about the weather here. So I just want to say, the last 2 days have been absolultely perfect.
Highs of 26 degrees, no sun, but dry, with high and light cloud. Fresh air and a light breeze. As others have said, it was great to ride and not drench the bike with my sweat.
Sublime weather in every way. Can we have 3 or 4 weeks of this, please?

It's raining again here. I'm rising up like a beautiful bubble to the surface.

I know, but last fall was appalling here, it rained and rained for ages.
The east coast weather owes me at least a month.

You can in Kaohsiung in Oct-Nov or Mar-April. It's finally getting into my comfort zone, in the evenings at least. Days are still way too hot.
