This is such a GREAT thread. I am so I happy I came across it. I will be starting work shortly (next few weeks) and I plan on riding my bike. I also will be working crazy hours (12:30am-9am) so it will be dark on my way in. Today I installed my bike with a headlight and a blinkie in the rear, lock,water cage w/bottle,replaced a flat tire and now have 2 spare tubes and fix it tools. I will be getting a pump shortly. I can not wait to meet all my new fellow co-workers when the "Yankee" pulls up on her bike to work the graveyard shift. ROTFL
