Very overcast today. Left the house at 0600 and rode down to the highway by-pass where I have a nice, lighted, straight, down-hill run. The light was red at the intersection going onto the by-pass so I'm rolling up slow in the right turn lane, we drive on the left over here, waiting for the light to change when Dork in the car behind me decides I'm not approaching the red light fast enough and hits the horn. So I stop. Short of the line, but too close for him to pass without having to stop in the intersection. The light changes and I make my turn into the right lane of the left side of the four lane, divided highway by-pass, then check my left rear and move into the outside lane. Shortly after this Dork passes me in the right lane and I give him a big smile and wave <you better be fast, Dork>. The hill steepens and I go into aero-tuck and start working my way up to 53-12 (times like this I wish I had something taller). At 68.56 K/h I blow past Dork and he doesn't catch me again until we're almost in town (a little over a kilometer from the bottom of the hill).

The rest of the ride to work was very nice in it's uneventfulness.

Passed a bunch of cars tied up in traffic on the ride home. Not nearly as windy this afternoon as was forecast. Dropped the chain once on the inside. Gonna have to make a few adjustments tonight for tomorrow's ride.

Edit-In retrospect I feel I should clarify my aero-tuck. This is not like the aero-tuck of a fit 25 yr. old on a fast road bike. This is a tuck that's as tucked as I can get over a 42 yr. old pot belly on a flat bar hybrid.
