Rain is in the forecast for the rest of this week but today is supposed to be nice. Left for work an hour early and got in an extra 15 miles. I'll still ride the next three days, but if it's raining I'm not going to put any extra miles on outside of just going back and forth to work. Figured I'd better fit in some extra exercise today.

Last night I negotiated a deal on a newer car for my wife. I hate buying cars. Went in with a firm upper limit in my mind. The sales manager said he couldn't make money if he sold me the car for that amount. I told him I disagreed, but even if it were true that didn't change how much I was willing to pay for that particular vehicle. I thanked him for his time and said to give me a call if they want to sell a car. About an hour later they called and said they'd sell the car to me for my price. I told them I'd swing in after work tonight to pay for it and pick it up.

Tonight I'm going to ride from work over to the lot to get the car. Then I'll throw my bike in the back and drive the car home for my wife. It's a hatchback so hopefully the bike will fit. I might have to remove the front wheel.
