A nice morning, but a little warmer than expected. I thought I could get away with riding in wearing my office clothes but I was glowing when I arrived. Good thing I packed a jersey and bibs for the ride home.

At one intersection I waved through a "too nice" driver. I was trying to make a left turn, she was going straight but stopped in the middle and tried to wave me through. I shook my head and mouthed "No! You go." She frowned and shook her head at me and now she's probably on carforums.net complaining about the ungrateful cyclist.

Exchanged good mornings with another commuter going my way at 15th and L. I didn't get a chance to mention that her rear tire looked low because she took to the sidewalk. If you're reading this (woman in the blue shorts on the hybrid): make sure you pump up that tire! And stay off the sidewalk!
