Commute home was nice, I took it mostly easy.

The area of new bike lanes I do not like presented extra problems tonight. Almost got right hooked by a Canada Post truck. Then avoiding a car straddling the bike lane to pick up passengers I took the lane only to lock up the rear to not hit a group illegally crossing. The city really f'd up with this. Then the girl I almost hit got lippy cause she was buries in her ipod and she thought me letting someone behind her go was me talking back to her. I got a giggle from a middle age woman who knew I said nothing. There is a section I am supposed to walk on the sidewalk for 30+ meters. Sigh.

Then I had to chase a guy almost the same pace as me. I didn't catch him, nor did I lose him.

The rest of the ride was nice and leisurely.
