Lately all my commutes have been on two wheels. Three days motorcycle, two days bicycle. The forcast for today was 100% rain, however, in the morning, it wasn't raining.. Sheesh, I grabbed my 78 Raleigh Competition I off I went. The 4 mile ride to the subway was awesome. Some kind of way, the Raleigh seemed perfect in everyway. Every rotation of the pedals was pure joy.. Got off the subway, 2 stops in front of my stop so I could ride a couple miles. Awesome..I ate breakfast downtown with my bike locked, but in FULL VIEW!! Finally at work..

Only thing, it has started raining big time. No problem, the Raleigh will STAY at work and I will either catch a ride, or ride the subway without the bike. Everybody on my job told me I was crazy to come out on the bike knowing it was going to rain. I told them, on the contrary, I loved every second of the ride. Right now, I am preparing a nice spot in my work cubical for my Raleigh, don't want it to feel uncomfortable not being home tonight... ..

At 70 years old, I will tell you, life is dam sweet!!
