Very nice riding yesterday afternoon and this morning. It's good to be back on the bike, though after almost two weeks away from the commute, my legs reminded me last night that it had been a while. Nothing serious, just a slight fatigue I don't usually feel from my commuting miles.

Tried to add to the karma account this morning... Came upon a cyclist along my commute route asking if I had a pump. I stopped to let him use my mini pump. He was new to commuting, and as it turned out, his brand new bike had a flat, so the pump didn't do much. I would have helped him patch his tube, but his IGH rear wheel didn't have quick release (i.e., was bolted on), and I didn't have the tools for that kind of job. Felt bad because I knew the guy would be left walking to work and then to the bike shop with his new bike. Oh well, I tried...
