domini (waiting for the electrician).

The (hopefully) last day to ride the Schwinn to work, as Jamis OUGHT to be fixed by Monday. Of course, by Monday, we will be on Daylight Saving Times, right? So it will be plenty light out, I won't need the lights on Jamis, so I should just ride the Schwinn.

Did I mention it was chilly? Forty-six degrees, Fahrenheit. Chilly!

The Schwinn feels so much faster, it being lighter and all. Although it was a bit wobbly riding home today, carrying a bag of STUFF. I forgot to pack some bungee cords. But, even loaded so, I rode up the Short Hill Of Death (Grossmont Center Dr.) ! to Center Drive, hung a west, and located a geocache.

The Short Hill Of Death

No bike lane, cars in a big hurry, lots of traffic, bridge. I love it!

Steve the M. is gonna loan me his GIANT (and expensive!) Park Chain Tool. My little one that I carry just won't do the job. So I INTEND to get that Jamis going, fer sure!

So far this week, I've got 43 miles ridden. Tomorrow I am driving, as I have a little Report Card Party to attend. I was invited to a much larger Halloween Party, but I had to decline as it would have lasted much longer and created difficulties. Noblesse oblige and all that, if you know what I'm talkin' 'bout.
