Commute today was not so good. Had another close call with a Chicago taxi B@st@rd. Tried passing me left and at the same time and turning right from the rightmost straight lane (there is a right hand turn lane to my right) and came within inches at high speed told me to shut up when I yelled "watch it" at him. I swear I loved it when the taxi drivers cried to the city last month that gas prices and citations with no fare increase were killing them. I just wish it would have finally forced them out of business.

Also broke another spoke on the way home (rear non drive outer) so I'll probably drive tomorrow until I can replace it.

All in all, not a good biking day

At least the commute on the way there was nice.
