I used my safety net on the way home this morning. I learned a lot. It was raining, so I didn't get up until 9:00. I decided to take the bus home. There is a bus route just 1/2 mile from work and it takes me 3 miles from home. I also learned that route ends at 8 am. I had to take a similar route that gets me 4 miles from home.

Cool things about this:

The bus drive is a local bike club member. We chatted a lot.
The bus has front bike racks.
I was dry.
I can bike the route faster than I can bus it.
