I went out to fly to day. As I was doing my pre-flight I got distracted. I checked the oil, but didn't latch the door. In case anyone is interested, the door opens at about 70 kts. It was a bit of a surprise, but not a big deal. I called tower and returned to land. As I slowed to land the door closed. I checked it closely after landing and there was no damage.
Lesson, when you are doing a pre-flight, don't stop to chat.
