Pouring rain this morning. I got completely drenched on the way to work. Thankfully my new Ortleib waterproof bags proved they were indeed as claimed so when I arrived my good clothes were nice and dry.

Was waiting at a stop sign for a reasonable break in traffic so I could make a right turn onto a very busy street. Apparently I wasn't aggressive enough for the girl in the car behind me because she decided to gun it and come around my left side, then make a right turn in front of me. Only to go about 50 yards and then stop for a line of cars backed up six blocks from a busy intersection. Goofball.

Had a weird thing happen when I left work last night. In the parking ramp alcove where I lock up my bike someone had leaned a little girl's pink BMX bike up against mine. It's not an area where there would be a lot of kids playing, and the bike was too small for an adult to be riding. For that matter, I've never seen another bike of any type in this parking ramp. Not sure where it came from. It was unlocked so I just moved it a few feet so I could unlock my bike and roll it out of the alcove. When I returned this morning the pink bike was gone.
