I work Saturdays and usually the commute is uneventfull except we had an ice storm yesturday and many fallen trees now block the community pathway used to avoid regular city traffic. Lifting the bike and portaging the fallen trees is not a big deal but I would like to voice my dissatisfaction to the dog owner who failed to clean-up after, (had to be large), canine. Rinsing the shoe free of the Alpo waste and wipping up the traces of my foot prints into the store where I work was not a problem but when cleaning the left side pedal the large chain ring pattern is now tattooed on my good dress shirt that will be worn for the rest of the day.
