Commuted home tonight and left the car at work. Felt great to loosen up on the bike today -- I ran a tough hilly half-marathon over the weekend and the legs needed a nice bike ride.

A couple interesting events tonight. First, I clicked over 3000 miles on the ol' Trek 520. Second, on two separate occasions dogs barked at me while passing (one was in the bed of a pickup and the other hanging out a car window). Scared the hell out of me!! I guess I should have smacked them upside the head according to the advice of the car-smackers earlier. Third, two idiot bikers were cruising the wrong way and forced me to veer from my path and into traffic. I definitely should have slapped them ... but I didn't.
