Twas raining pretty hard yesterday and being without a lick of rain gear I drove in. But I biked in today and discovered that gloves are usefull things on cold days! - I'll have to buy a pair! Will try to pike up a rack this weekend too, backpack is do-able but I'd like to tote more clothes and stuff and it might get a bit unweildy.
I left earlier today, ~8:15, much more traffic and a little more difficult figuring out how to handle various situations like left turns. left turns w/separate lanes, crossing back over two lanes to take left hand exit, do I line up at the left hand light or go to the front, do I go to the front on the right when there is no room on the left (divided highway) and expose myself to traffic (I didn't)?
