I also look forward to all of the fair weather cyclists heading back to their cars and and stop shoaling me. I actually did not see more cyclists than normal this morning.

I honestly have never stopped at any but a I may have this morning if they were handing out edible treats or warm beverages. I am usually against stopping for too long on the commute.

There are actually none along either of my normal routes. I could deviate and stop at 10th and Ontario on the Thursday afternoon, but free snacks are not a huge draw. But I could stand to get a free RD adjustment. And make them work on it at 6 pm+ in the pouring rain while my son and I eat all their snacks...

Beer samples or fresh pastry would guarantee a stop.

There is usually one at 10th and Victoria, but not this time. I wonder why?
