I had a fantastic ride to work yesterday morning, possibly the best. I have awful pain in my feet when I ride, and I think my next step in pursuing it is a podiatrist's office. But yesterday morning, I didn't have any. No back or neck pain, either. The weather was gorgeous.

I stopped upon a guy who had a flat tire, and I helped him. We put in my spare tube, and I took his punctured tube home. He had a pretty big staple in his tire. I better remember to patch that tube before I go out again.

Riding home was tough. I usually have headwinds in the morning, but the ride back was quite windy. The pain in my feet did come back for some reason. I don't know why it went away in the morning.

I drove my wife's car to work this morning. I really don't like doing this. A horrible smell has developed inside the car, so I brought it to the detailing shop. It's a rainy day, so the detailing guy isn't working today, so all that trouble wasn't worth it. I also had to spend a good bit of time finding a parking spot.
