I had the luxury of not heading out on my bike ride until a few hours later today, which meant I could bike in the sun. While the sun was indeed out, as I got down by the water I was enveloped in a thick fog bank.Normally I like fog. The thicker the better. Today's was a pretty cold one, as I was noticing frost forming on the outside of my jacket as I was riding. But, I had my two pair of gloves on, and multiple layers, so it wasn't until I was riding down the hill from
Prospect Point in Stanley Park that I started to freeze out my feet.Mental note: investigate my options for insulated shoe covers.
Today's ride was nice. I like how quiet it gets in a fog bank. It reminded me of when we had a weather inversion a couple years back, although this was nowhere near as extensive. I'm glad I set out when I did, as I am sure that by now the fog has burned off.

PS. The banner shot was also taken today, in the thick of the fog down by the Stanley Park marina. Note the ice in the water, evidence that the water around Vancouver is not nearly salty enough.
