This morning reminded me that I am a potentially lethal presence on the Tama River Cycling Road.
It was cold, wet, dark and raining.
And I realized yet again that I am basically blind in those conditions, being unable to see. I’m not helped by only using an 800 lumen light on the track instead of the 2,000 lumen light I had used up until last winter, but which is no longer financially tenable to maintain.
Luckily, I made it home safely and was rewarded to see a lush garden basking in the bath it received in the first rain on Tokyo for 40 days!
