Finally got back to bike-commuting. Played b-ball last Thursday and was away traveling Friday and Monday so today was first commute in a while. Felt great to be out again and I can't wait for ride home.

Counted traffic lights and stop signs on way in. Been meaning to do this for a while. And the answer is: a total of 51 traffic signals and stop signs during my 20-mile commute. I even went a slightly different way to get a hill climb in that shaved off probably another 4 or 5 signals. I didn't realize I negotiated this many impediments to speed on my commute.

And today was one of those days where it seems that half the signals were red. Worse, I caught the light in the "early stages", right after it switched from yellow.

I'm going to start a thread asking others how many *&#%*#%* signals they encounter.
