This morning's tire adventure:



I had repaired that tire once before, and I'm thinking that with that cut it should be retired. (Get it? Re-tired? )

One pic from the return commute. In Woburn Center a statue of one of Woburn's famous native-born sons, Benjamin Thompson, Count Rumford.



I ride by his statue every day. BF member Jim_from_Boston called him to my attention last year. Though I had seen the statue and wondered who it was I always took it for granted. Where I grew up we had statues everywhere, mostly historical, certainly not scientific.
