A Sunset Bike Ride

Last night I decided to take a sunset bike ride. The sun was just starting to set, but
there will still enough light in the sky for another hour or so. It had been so hot
yesterday during the day, which is why I waited to ride my bike until the sun went
down. It had cooled off quite a bit, and was now perfect biking weather. I got my
bike out of the garage and filled my cycling water bottle and was on my way down my neighborhood street. I like to ride in my neighborhood because the houses are spread out and there is not much car traffic. As a got about a mile away from my house, I noticed the sun had disappeared rather quickly. The downside to having the houses further apart is the streetlights are sparse. Luckily I have reflectors on my bike as well as on my helmet. It was about time that I turned around and headed back home. By the time I turned on my street in was pitch black! I could barely see the street ahead of me. My only saving grace was the porch light that I had turned on before I left for my bike ride.
