I have a friend here in St. Louis who rides year around. She and I check each morning to see if the other rode or not. It's not a competition as such, but.... Anyway, Monday is her day off. She never rides on Ride To Work Day. She rode anyway, but not to work. She took a nice long ride out to the country for lunch.<br />~kKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511418214984130122.post-40541720087471742152013-06-18T18:50:43.870-07:002013-06-18T18:50:43.870-07:00Sadly, I don't think the bikes were there for ...Sadly, I don't think the bikes were there for the Ride to Work Day. I think they just didn't check the forecast closely. Still, last year there were only two bikes in the parking area, so it was a massive improvement whether by accident or design.Keith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511418214984130122.post-88520524707378161482013-06-18T11:54:04.558-07:002013-06-18T11:54:04.558-07:00My motorcycle is "down" at the moment, s...My motorcycle is "down" at the moment, so I didn't ride. It's pretty hard for me to convince myself to make a 36 mile commute in the summer, anyway. Just too, too hot! I suppose all of those people who ride in short pants and no helmet don't think it's bad, but 95 degrees in the afternoon with a jacket, even a really airy one, just isn't worth it to me.<br /><br />But I do usually ride on ride-to-work day. Currently waiting on a new rear sprocket. Since I don't think my wife will let me work on it in the house, it may not get done until late September! (Just kidding.)Alan P.
