Consecutive bicycle work commute number 898:
7F this morning with a light cross wind. I seemed to be pedaling extra slow, for some reason. I think my average speed on the way in was just less than 8 mph. Usually in the winter I average somewhere between 8-9 mph.
My new winter fat bike I bought a few months ago hit 500 miles on the odometer, so I stopped and took a commemorative photo.
I ran into a guy at the client location that I've seen before, but don't really know. He told me, "if you ever see a blue Subaru right behind you, that's me. I got your back." He said he used to be an avid cyclist when he was younger so he tries to get behind me and block traffic when he can. So I've got that going for me, which is nice.
