Chasing the sun at the end of the day

Tonight's mission was to chase the sun before it disappeared for good.

Not so easy to do when the planet is moving at ridiculous speed through space, and the best I can manage on the bike is around the sprint speed of a cookie-motivated Labrador Retriever. With a tailwind.

Never mind the physics of roadside smartphone sunset cycling photography - it was worth every sweaty, air-so-thick-you-could-eat-it pedal stroke. It may not be the most convenient way to get the shot, but I'm fairly certain it's the most rewarding.

Maybe I'll ride tomorrow, too. Who knows what I'll find at the edge of the planet on my next adventure.
