Yeah, Molly it was! From Neuromancer. Otherwise Gibson’s coolest character, the main one this time, is of course the messenger Chevette Washington in Virtual Light. I think I gonna start a new thread about her (here it feels somewhat off the topic...) :cool:

My favorite Gibson character is Dog of the LoTeks.
well I do kinda like molly.

Well, I wanted to say something about gear, but I don't know if anyone is paying attention anymore.:rolleyes:

For me, I can't live without this commuting gear:

--Lightweight, lowtop hiking shoes (very stiff soles)
--$1 vented wind breaker from Goodwill (soon to be replaced with a yellow Illuminite jacket)
--Long-johns for under my jeans
--Of course the skull cap/balaclava
--Front and back blinkies
--reflective ankle straps
--Jaand fabric grocery basket for my backpack
--Yellow and orange big safety triangles for the front and back of my basket (I'm like half an Amish carriage)

All these things make my ride pleasurable in any weather. I find the more comfortable I make biking, the more annoying my car gets, and the more I ride.

We’re paying attention! We continued the Gibson discussion in another thread. ;)

Since I started using a handlebar bag I could never go back to backpacks. Having your back free is invaluable to me (when biking on roads).

Rich - Thanks for the links on the sandals. Gotta dig the color of those Adidas!

I know these have all been covered. I recently bought my first pair of bib-shorts. They are a vast improvement over shorts. Two cents worth.
