Last commute of the relatively relaxed summer season for me. After a late night, I felt kinda crappy before I left home, but felt good on the bike. I'm really enjoying the freshly repaved roads along most of the ride. There's one section I really wish the town would do something about, but I'm not going to complain since the improvements that happened were needed badly. Spun in most of the way, but the breeze held me up a bit.

10 motorcycles in bicycle parking again this AM. Of the approximately 25 bicycle parking spots, only 4 or 5 were accessible (enough room to safely park and lock my bike without risking damage to either my bike or the motorcycles) between motorcycles. I can't wait for these fair weather, motorcycle posers go back to their cars for the winter. Ya know it's funny, Monday/ Tuesday this week were cool and drizzly... not a single motorcycle to be found... Sunny warm Friday and there's 10 of 'em.

For the season, I did pretty good averaging 3 or 4 commutes a week thru the summer semester including a some days when I played softball after work and rode home after 8 PM. Dropped a couple lbs this summer, and pushed my equipment a bit trying to figure out where I go next with my next bike set-up.

On Monday I'll be entering the Thunderdome as the kiddes will be back on campus, sleeping in then rushing to make their classes and gobbling up parking spaces like ravers gobble E. I foresee a rough couple weeks until apathy sets in, then I get to worry about darkness.
