Another nice morning commute. I went at a leisure pace; just happy to be out there on my bike. (My LBS informed me that the rack for my new bike arrives tomorrow! Can't wait to start commuting on my new bike with 29" wheels and slicks.) Saw a runner with a headset light strolling along in the dark. Also, the rider that passed me yesterday also passed me today, but he got hung up at an intersection with oncoming traffic so I caught up with him and we introduced ourselves and chatted briefly. After traffic passed he took off on his road bike; I mean he really took off! Wow if I could someday ride like that! It was great to meet another bike commuter on the road; it validates my feeling that what I'm doing now is a great activity and shared by all those who have been willing to discover it.
