Just a little post today... only three pictures.

A bit wet today (just misty), but it was warm, and i braved just shorts and a long sleeve shirt today. It was wonderful.

On to pictures:

1) I like the idea of bikes leaving tracks... a history, an impression
2) See??? shorts!!!
3) Can you tell i've made some suggestions to people about what kind of commuter bike they should get? (L-R... Bianchi RC, Bianchi RC, Surly X-check)

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!

Nice rack... bike rack that is.

Those are three swell cross bikes locked up there, especially the fraternal twin celeste rides.

Looks like just a U lock through the rear wheel and frame. Good way to lose a front wheel.

Maybe/hopefully they use something like the Krypto locking skewer set. I use that on my front wheel.

This is Canada, remember? The land made famous by Michael Moore for not locking the front door. Honestly, i'm not worried about it. We work in the back corner of a commercial/industrial park that sees very little traffic, and there is a bit of employee foot traffic around there. Very low risk.

But yeah, i suppose i am a bit careless in that respect. My buddy with the dura ace front hub should be more worried, i guess :-)

D,

I dunno' how I missed this post, but I just saw it today.

Your Specialized shoes reminded me of my buddy's shoes. A friend I went to highschool with and raced with way back in the day. He had a pair of those exact shoes that he wore for so long that they were like a big pair of floppy slippers.. super beat! I dunno why he loved them so much, because they were rotting off of his feat lol.

Nice to see you're spreading the commuting word up there, keep it up and keep the pictures coming, even if it's just one or two, it's great to see them!
