I was there at CM on Friday, seemed a little underpar from my recent attendances (the U-turns, one of which could've been done a whole world better on Jarvis ) - the Bloor bridge/viaduct was neat to look at from the front (I was the one on the roadie who sprinted at the front of the pack) and I must admit, the clearing for the ambulance was very impressive and made me feel good that it might take 500 bikes to piss off a couple drivers, but those 500 bikes moved the **** out of the way in a damn hurry when they needed to We had a tail-end issue with the passenger of a cab getting all pissed off at Richmond/Yonge. Nothing lost, but I did have to remind my newcomer friends just to let it go and carry on - trying to deflate tension is the best "Happy Friday"s all 'round.

I just got my helmet-cam delivered... time to start experimenting with that I guess, woo.

5 days off a bike, in need of two rear wheel trues (and spokey-fixey-uppy), but I'm still riding today anyway.
Me > TTC.
