Last night I did the thing I've thought about doing but never did. About half way home on my ride, a little (or a lot?) drunk, it started raining lightly. The day before, after my light test with BFers 1nterceptor and Noglider, (some comments in my thread on the lighting/electronics forum) I heard something rubbing and it was my rear fender. I'd lost the brake bridge nut. No biggie, I just had to find a nut and put it back on, except that I hadn't done it yet.

So anyway, I'm riding home, I'm drunk, it's raining, and my rear fender is sitting at home. Luckily in NYC, we have the long silver sag wagon. So for my first time commuting I bagged it and hopped on the subway. It was raining a lot harder when I got off the train and rode the two blocks home.
