It was really warm this morning. I caught a cyclist at a stop light and then a third showed up, it was very unusual. I then went and passed the first guy and he went on the road one way and I took the chicane path for bikes through the park. He must have been rushing and blowing stop signs since he almost t-boned another highly visible cyclist. I passed him like a hot knife through butter uphill with my son attached. We took different routes and met again.

The rest of the ride was nice. I took some side routes to a avoid left turn line ups. It was a pleasant and nice ride.

I got my new studded tires for the four days a year. With the current forecast I feel foolish buying them. But they are a long term investment.

I also got a sweet Craigslist deal on a nine year old burley trailer. It has one broken clip which epoxy will fix and I need an axle mount hitch for the bikes. Other than some minor wear it is in amazing shape. All for fifty dollars!
