So I was coming back down Leslie, from Aurora and this roadie on a sweet Colnago comes by me and says, that's a neat bike! Don't see many fixied gears around here. That probably just made up for all the crappy things thats happened last week.

Survived my first cyclocommute to UTSC from downtown today. The route I took was surprisingly nice, at least pavement-wise, and there weren't too many gigantor trucks. Commute to UTSC 1, commute to UTM 0.

On the flip side, if the Unwin sprints are on tomorrow (ie. no torrential rain) I swing by and video tape some of the fun. It's about time TO had better representation on the internets... I'm gettin tired of every YouTube video featuring SanFran, NYC, or Seattle....
