Title: Bike To Work Day
Post by: F'ueco on May 16, 2007, 10:58:31 AM

 Is tomorrow (5/17), so make sure you drive your gas-guzzler to work tomorrow... And bike commuters are worth 5 up to 20 points depending on the value of their bike...  ;)

Folks on new steelies are prime targets.
I will be riding in, as will Mudworm.

I guess I'm okay then, I don't have the new ride yet.  :)

 But yes, I of course will be riding in to work this morning as usual. Hopefully the 46 oz of beer and shot of vodka I had last night don't hinder me too much...

clipped a recumbent this morning, and tapped two velodrome knuckleheads on the rear tires with my truck.

i then proceeded to the nearest gas station to poor gas into the gutter.


my work here is done.

Enjoy the ride home as well!

I may head out to Gordon Biersch tonight for the Silicon Valley Bike Coalition's shindig. But that all depends on how social I am feeling this afternoon when I leave work...

I did, yesterday. :D  See my ride here. (http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/invitation/accept.mb?senderPk.pkValue=119085&unitSystemPkValue=2&episodePk.pkValue=2752836&backgroundDatasourcePk.pkValue=11&view=portlet)

I think this is what I'm going to do this summer -- spread two round trips into four days every week. That is, I commute one way everyday.  Otherwise, four hours on the road every day is a bit too much. Not to mention I have to carry everything (toiletries and clothes) on my back like what Mr Mud does.
