Water, water everywhere.........

The ride home was a bit on the wet side. A light drizzle in spots. But I've been riding my mountain bike this week because my regular commuter developed a freehub problem and is unusable. Man, do those knobby tires throw off some road sludge; a.k.a. no fenders on the MTB.

All in all it was an OK ride. At work we're doing a GreenRide/OneLessCar initiative and there are a lot of teams. You get a point for every commute you make using alternative transportation. You don't get much for how far you ride, but it does skew towards transportation with a smaller carbon footprint.

Now that I know "someone's watching," I don't want to chicken out and drive the car in even though the weather is lousy. Yes, North Florida is pretty wet and humid right now. If feels like a hurricane is developing on top of us.

Oh how I want some beautiful fall weather!
