Sunday Morning In The June Gloom

There was a post on the FB last night from Steve the L. thanking everyone for their thoughts and prayers and help.  Very cheering to hear!

Went for a ride just a hair over ten miles this morning, before breaking fast, if you can believe it, and dedicated the victory to The Big Swede.

Replace the full log on the Costco cache.  Farther up the road I checked the pine cone cache. It was on the ground, open, and the log was gone.  Stuck a piece of paper in there for a temporary log sheet.

I just realized I can make toast for breakfast, because, you know, I bought a toaster the other day!  Ze mind, she is like a steel trap!¹ Rusty and illegal in forty-eight states.

Gonna go hang out with Mom, Jodi, and Matt this afternoon. May take a nap first...

Week Rounding Up And Down

Rode almost ten miles Thursday, and just over ten miles Friday, to make it very nearly thirty miles for the week.  On the high side.

Stopped at the Grossmont College Bike To Work station, go a t-shirt (very nice!), a Cliff Bar (also very nice, if unattractive, rather reminding me of the bicycle bars C. used to make me.), and a Trek water bottle (rather needed).

One other person biked to work this year, which is one more than any other year!

Back In The Saddle?

Biked to work today, 'cause it IS Bike To Work week, or month, or something. A total of very nearly ten miles, too.

Only thing of interest that I noticed was two Harbor Police cars at the Heritage Inn.  It is probably twelve miles to the harbor. Do they know something that we do not?

Finally

I rode the bike to work yesterday, and home again, and today, so far, I have ridden it to, and I have great hopes of riding it home.

First time on the bike since, quite possibly, early December 2012!

Rain Tonight

Yes, it is supposed to rain tonight.  And tomorrow, maybe!

Rode to work yesterday and today.  This morning I saw yet another car parked in the bike lane on Jackson Drive.  The problem is, that short little segment of bike lane where the car is does not have a red curb (unlike the near curb), so car think they can park there.



The auto's taillights are lit up from my flash.

Yesterday I was a jerk.  Two people jaywalked across Fletcher Parkway, strolling rather slowly.  I got closer and closer, and passed REALLY close to them.  One of them squealed.    Really, lady, it's a road, get out of it!  Try that in front of a car and see what happens!

I gotta get me one of them air horns!

It's Thursday!

Already!  Time is fleeting!

Rode to work again, another ten miles round trip!  The Trip-O-Meter is up to 43 miles for the week!

Free shoes, size 10 1/2, across the street from Costco on Fletcher Parkway!



Today I must rant again about the queue jumping motorcyclists.  Here we see one trying to nose into the space between cars after sneaking up from many cars back.  He gave up and just sped out ahead at the green arrow, although, interestingly enough, he looked to his left as he was making the turn, to see if anyone was coming.  Why would they, he had the green arrow. Huh.



That is about all I have for today!

Foggy Ride To Work

Biked to work, now the trip-o-meter is up to 32 miles for the week.

Rotten gear shifter for the chainrings is too hard to push with my poor thumb.  Takes two hands!  Gotta do something about THAT!

Pumped up the tires on the AV/Laptop Charger Cart.

That is all!
