Coming home yesterday afternoon I nearly creamed myself on the back of some van. There is this turn that we make onto an overpass and cars have a habit of gunning it and then slamming on the breaks because there is not enough room to make the turn. I was caught behind one of these. Slammed on the brakes and felt my back tire skid and wobble. managed to successfully make it in time and sidle off to the right as I ended up overshooting his bumper by half a foot or so.

We're supposed to be humid but I've not been able to tell, at least compared to what I'm used to in San Antonio. Mornings have been nice and sunny though.
