Hey y'all, checking in after a long gap between posts ... but not commuting ... still commuting 2-3 times a week.

On to my 7th year of commuting year round. The Bay Area's weather tends to make such commuting a relatively easy thing.

Still have made no contact with any cars though I've had my share of close calls. Still doing the 20-mile-each-way commute although I've recently moved into a new building with no showers. This has fouled-up my plan. I usually ride home more now and work in longer rides with hills to compensate.

My trusty Trek 520 (touring bike) now has about 5700 miles on it. Still going strong. I still have my ever-present blinking front and rear lights.

Be safe out there, gang, and always keep an eye out for the right-hook!!!
