Had a nice fast ride to work this morning with tailwinds much of the way. Rode my Eddy Merckx because my commuter/touring bike is at the shop, so I would have ridden faster even without the wind. Even had pretty good luck at the traffic lights except some dolt in a pickup truck in front of me started reading his mail while waiting for the last light to change. This particular light has a very long cycle, so when he failed to notice it had turned green, I just went around him on the right. That apparently woke him up and he got through the light, but it may have been red by then. If it was, he is in for a surprise because there is a red-light camera at that light.
