Ride somewhere else!!!

My commutes have been uneventful for the most part. I had a staff meeting a week ago so since I didn't need anything but a pen and my name badge I rode my Varsinental frankenstein bike with the ape hangers. The lady rode her Breeze. She hasn't ridden it in almost 2 years so when I pulled it out of the shed the tires were flat and there was a thin film of mildew on the seat. I gave it a quick wash and aired up the tires.

We took went on a trial run to get lunch since her bike had been sitting so long. I start hearing a wierd noise...kind of a rub and a rattle. The tire was starting to come off the rim and rub the chainguard. We went home so she could get her other bike and we went to lunch. I got back and put a different tire on her bike. I'll mess with that one another time. I'm not sure if the bead is messed up or I just didn't have it seated properly.

I must say though, that there is something magical about two shiny blue schwinns going down the road with the sun reflecting off of the chrome!

Today I rode to the pharmacy to refill my perscriptions. since my insurance was supposed to be cancelled july first I was expecting to have pay full price. Since one of my medications is $450, The Dr. is trying to get me samples but I still would have needed a week's worth. Finally the idiot's in the office at my job made a mistake in my error and forgot to file the paperwork so it was covered. I rode home with a smile on my face and a tail wind!!
