Another beautiful day, another wonderful commute. Had a great breakfast with Moose and the family. Plenty of chit chat about how our weeks were turning out and talk of weekend plans. Sadly nothing much more than that to report. Overall pretty chill Friday rides. New bike fund: $122.55 (+$0.01), €1.52,…

It’s kinda crazy how warm it was this morning. I guess the cloud cover kept in the heat from yesterday. I very nearly could have done both the in- and out- ride in full summer kit. The ride home felt significantly longer than usual without the Moose escort. Guess I’ve…
Does this ride count towards the “IAMS Wag Your Way to Strong Muscles and Healthy Energy” Strava challenge? I mean sure the challenge description mentions doing an activity with “your dog” but certainly any pet would count right? Even a pet Moose? I will say though that knowing Moose was…
Another Friday, another breakfast commute. It was a busy day at work conducting interviews. I’m trying to hire one or more students to work in my labs and free up my technical student. I had interviews all day and the last one ended around 4:30. So I spent the next…
Original Bandok title: People say nothing is impossible. But I do nothing all the time. Another absolutely gorgeous day for riding. Not entirely sure what it was, but I really enjoyed the last couple miles of the ride to work. I pulled up to campus and was just thrilled with…
First morning commute in shorts for the year. I did opt for arm warmers though. We’ve been truly blessed with an incredibly mild winter. Especially when compared to what’s been going on back east. No arm warmers for the ride home, and the wool base layer was almost too much.…
I can’t believe how amazing the weather was today. As I sat at the corner of Harmon and Maryland Pkwy I thought, “Holy cow I’m actually hot!” I left work early and rushed home to get packed for a quick weekend trip to my in-laws’ house. The plan is for…
Another Wednesday, another commute. Nothing too crazy on the ride in. On the ride home I totally missed Joey Ruggs going the opposite direction along Coronado Center. Thankfully I had Moose with me to give Joe a holler and tell me I’m a bone head for missing him. He was…
Original Bandok title: I’m a cycle-path. Pretty uneventful commute today. I did really beat myself up on the way home though. Had a rough end of the day at the office, and spent way too much of the ride home ruminating. After crossing Sunridge Heights, I’d honestly had enough of…
The day started great with an amazing breakfast with amazing company. I was joined by the entire Moose clan, Jeff and Michelle, and my entire family making for a large group of eight! I had a great time visiting with all of them. The ride home got started much later…
