The Winter Line

I’m wearing shorts today.

That’s not a determined declaration or anything – I’m really wearing shorts. And not bike shorts. Regular shorts. It’s going to hit 70 (or thereabouts) today in Omaha.

That little factoid is notable for a couple of reasons. One being the date: February 17. It’s a bit early for 70 degrees. I’ve been out on the bike in shorts (sans knee warmers) a couple of times already, but I had some assistance from Mad Alchemy embrocation. Even so, I have a pretty nice head start on my summer tanlines, tall socks and all.
