MARTA says that cyclists should be curtious when trains are particularly crowded and wait for one with room for a bicycle. I agree with them. But there's no penalty for taking a bike on, even when it's really really crowded and the handlebars are smashing someone's ribs...<grumble><grumble><grumble>...

Anyway, beautiful weather today. In a fit of desperation last night, I stripped off my generator hub, fenders, and rack. I forgot that I had a bike under my commuting gear! Very fast ride in today and then quit work early to go home and work on a presentation (took the long way home.)
