I think Elena is traveling today, so I thought I would post this thread.  I rode my bike 14 miles this morning and I hope to take a lunch time walk as well.  Usually I have no traffic issues when I ride my bike early in the morning, but today was different for some reason.  I had a pick up pass 2 feet from my shoulder doing at least 60 mph.  I  also had to stop three times at intersections for people in their cars who obviously weren't expecting to see anyone on a bicycle.  Other than the bozo in the pick-up truck, there were no close calls, so I somehow managed to keep my middle finger under control.....and that guy went by me so fast that it would have been pointless to display my discontent anyway.  So, how are you moving today?

I walked 3 miles at lunch time.

I rode my bike another 14 miles tonight.

RP - be careful on that bike!  I hope you wear a helmet.  It is hard when not on bike trails, as cars are not as aware as they should be.  And some don't care.

I do wear a helmet and today was a good reminder of why I do that.
