Nice clear, still morning, a little nip in the air but still wearing only a jersey. Traffic was a little on the heavy side and I noticed that most of the diesel trucks now route the exhaust to the right of the vehicle, this means it hits us at about the waist, it's almost as bad as a car full of smokers with the window down. My ride was uneventfull and nice, Monday is my heavy load day, this morning my bike weighed in at 76 pounds when I left. I took my time and kept my average speed to about 16 mph, just below my sweat window, It took me 1 hour, 5 minutes to cover my 18.5 miles. It's supposed to be a nice afternoon, I'm looking forwad to getting out of work and maybe taking the long way home. I have to agree with Naisme, the bus drivers I generally encounter are by far the worst and most dangerous drivers on the road, I think they do it intentionally. Have a great day.
