What a great morning to ride (7/24)

**Cheese** · 07-24-06, 07:56 AM

Maybe it's just because I rode Saturday in the fog, mist, drizzle and eventually pouring rain but the morning commute was sweet! I was only out for 15 minutes and I already heard voices saying, "bang a left or right anywhere, we don't need to be at work today". I finally listened and went west instead of south. Only an hour late for work and definitely worth it. Great riding weather. Better than good sex.

That specific comment has gotten me in a lot of trouble
with my wife ....

Jealousy is something to avoid if you can ...

Now excuse me while I go for a nice long ride before work cause I don't have to be in till 11am!

I was going to ride today until I realized that since my office got moved I had a laptop, lunch, and 100 other misc things to bring in with me that I brought home on Friday...

oh well, tomorrow is looking nice too...

That was carefully worded. It wasn't better than great sex and some say there's no such thing as bad sex although I tend to disagree.

today I have an unscheduled "site visit" to attend to around 1pm. should last an hour or two.

**The Snowman** · 07-24-06, 09:14 AM

Today is definitely one of the better days to ride in over the past couple of weeks. Too bad my commute is mostly highway though, but at least I got an hour in on the bike this morning.

I did get to ride yesterday late afternoon. 3 hour ride through south-central MA. (rt 16 east, rt 27 south, rt 109 east, rt 1A south)

Good stuff. Too bad the coffee house in Norwood, which was my target location, is closed on Sundays. But in this case, calling ahead wasn't better than driving there.

Eye problems for me. I can't "see" staying at work.

Another amazing thing about working from home...

Most of the time, I can take my breaks whenever I want, ride whenever I want, Hell, work whenever I want, as long as things get done.

Two words for you:

YOU SUCK

**Gonzo** · 07-25-06, 06:55 PM

Yeah i rode in today also saw a ton of bikes. leaving work i see a guy in the next building leaving wearing shorts, sneakers but riding jacket and gloves.

i guess he's only half a squid. hope that wasn't someone from this site.

**FazerChic** · 07-25-06, 06:57 PM

I gotta admit, during the week, I'm a half squid...wearing riding jacket, gloves, helmet...uh...with capri pants and sneakers. Yeah, yeah...give me hell. You know you want to. The only day I'm not a squid is Fridays when I can wear jeans.

**PatSV650** · 07-25-06, 07:02 PM

Off topic, but, Gonzo..... We're gonna need to be seein' the full size version of that avatar!

**breakdirt916** · 07-25-06, 10:48 PM

Isn't a ride home, a ride through rush hour traffic?

I think my ride home today was great because when the 2nd shift gets out at 11:30pm, there aren't many people out on the roads.

**ChrisNoF4i** · 07-25-06, 11:17 PM

What?

**LuvDog** · 07-26-06, 06:17 AM

When I'm a commuting I'm a half squid too... jacket, helmet, gloves... but we can't wear jeans to work... so I'm in my dress pants.

**Cheese** · 07-26-06, 06:38 AM

Pants and shoes in my backpack and ridin' pants and boots on for the ride. Actually my riding pants are cooler than most pants so it works out good.

Truthfully, I have a LOT more close calls commuting than I do out on long weekend rides.

What a great morning to ride (7/24)
