Well, last night was the first time since about mid-October that I haven’t had to wear my coat while riding. My god it’s great to be riding in just regular clothes. I am so heartily sick of wearing EVERYTHING to go out and ride my bike. Last night I wore a pair of normal pants, [...]

During the last Critical Mass, there was at least one rider, and I got the impression that it was actually a handful, who caused some consternation among the horse-and-carriage drivers.

torrid.com is the place to go. That is if you are an over 6′ size 12. As you will see, they work pretty darn well on the ectomorphic build.

I meant to do a write-up of last night’s Critical Mass, but by the time I got home, made supper, and drank a beer, I was too tired to do much of anything, so I went to bed.

Okay, have you ever been so tired, that your arms felt like they were someplace other than on your body?
This 6:00 a.m. shift shit is going to kill me.
