Consecutive bicycle work commute number 780:
Beautiful morning. I took the road bike the 8 miles to the office and managed to arrive in a hair under 32 minutes. That's pretty fast for an old fat guy with a bionic heart.
Riding 9 miles to a client location over the lunch hour. Brought my dad's old transistor radio with me so while I ride I can catch part of the Twins@Marlins baseball game that starts at noon. Daytime baseball games are decidedly inconvenient for those of us in the work force.
Yesterday on a local cycling Facebook group that I'm active in, another rider called me the "Tony Hawk of Sioux Falls bicycle commuting." That made me laugh.
