Yesterday there were eight bikes in the parking area I use. Today, my bike made four. Somebody must have forgotten to pass around the memo.

Yeah, I didn't see many bikes today - no more than usual, anyway. I rode to work - 67 miles total.

I keep getting the "You'd better stop that." in reference to me riding a motorcycle. They are all concerned that I am key to their processes and if I bite it they are screwed.

The danger may be greater than in a car, but it doesn't feel that much greater.

Oh, except that "O Ring" in the Jaguar today that tried to lane change in to me at the base of the GWB.

That means it's time to ask for a raise, right? :twisted:

If you ride across a state line then ride back home you are "riding to work". See, it works for all of us ;).

I rode today in the rain to, and in the rain and the dark on the way back. First time for both. I always thought riding in the rain would be freaky, but I actually really liked it. It was nice and cool and just felt... refreshing. Of course it wasn't exactly pouring.

Dang, that would have been a LONG ride.

I wish I'd thought of it...
