the fly6 is SO cool. really excited. the product features sound awesome they look awesome just waiting to see if they are actually awesome. hah. i am on the waitlist for the front light. my husband was an early kickstarter backer and already has his front light. he thinks it's great for commuting, he feels protected. he also argues that if someone hits you from behind, you want footage of that. so front and back lights make sense. agree that most of the stupid stuff i see is in front of me though. like today a MTA bus pulled into the bike lane in front of me without so much as signaling. really annoyed about that one. i hope it caught my verbal. will have to wait til i get the front light though to capture that sort of thing.

one more thing about the commute. windy as heck. gulping for air on the bridge ascent only filled my mouth with dirt/sand/rocks that blew into me from the wind.

two thoughts
-gross.
-ah spring riding.
Ooh, you reminded me of a great one from yesterday's ride home - major one way northbound street with a bike lane. Just north of a downtown funeral home a procession of cars about 1/2 mile long were parked, with people sitting in their cars, in the bike lane I guess waiting for the funeral procession. If I had the guts I'd have yelled something but since I'd have to yell it 50 times or so I figured it was a good time to keep my mouth shut.
