Back today after a week-long vacation in the Caribbean. Nothing (about the commute anyway!) to report.

However...when the taxi dropped us at the airport in Turks and Caicos Saturday I was stunned to see several bike racks in front of the terminal. OK, I get that the income levels in T&C are low so bikes are a common form of transport. But there isn't a SINGLE BIKE RACK in the brand-new "multi-use development" strip mall near my house. And the shopping center even has a bike shop! Grrrrr.
