For the 30th day of April, and my 27th day of biking in April[1]I missed 3 days because a Colorado low dropped enough rain that I couldn’t get to the garage., I went for a 16km bike ride and managed to snap a couple photos while I was out.
Above: A classic car I spotted on a side street.

I went about 14 km on my bike today, since it might be the last good day for a while. Snapped some photos of the graffiti on the north wall of one of the downtown buildings.
