A quick thought on the MM. Do be careful. There are lots of people out there. Yesterday we came upon a skater lying face down on the pavement, apparently having had an "incident" with a kid's bike, to judge by the bike laying on its side and the folks standing around helping. She (the skater) seemed to be okay, and had plenty of help. She was smartly wearing helmet, and knee and elbow pads.

One morning on my commute (last Friday?) a bunch of emergency vehicles came flying up to the MM near Arlington Center. I was heading away west and saw nothing, so it must have been in response to something behind me.

It can be a dangerous piece of pavement.
