I was running late this morning already, and then realized my front tire was flat as I was wheeling my bike out of the garage. That was weird because I rarely ever get front flats, and I suspect that the valve went bad. So, I swapped all of my gear to another bike rather than trying to fix the flat, and was only 15 minutes late getting to work.

The weather has been beautiful in NC all week except for a rainy day on Tuesday, with chilly mornings in upper 40s and afternoon highs in the 70s. My only complaint with the weather is that pollen levels have been ridiculously high, as they usually are here in early-mid April. My voice has been froggy all week and I've had trouble swallowing, presumably due to all of the pollen I've ingested riding 15 hours over the past week.
