It was a drizzling once again when I woke up this morning. No big deal; it's nothing Teese can't handle. I ate me a nice big bowl of Smart Start accompanied with an incredibly yummy iced pumpkin donut (thanks kelse). Last night I had to fix a flat on Teese, I had run over some glass and wedged a pretty big piece in the back tire. I got home without losing any pressure, and I only noticed because I heard a faint hissing when I was wiping off the grime. I took it inside removed the glass and couldn't find a hole in the tube. So I put a patch at where I thought it was and plopped it back on. I dried and regreased the chain. A champ reborn! This morning's ride went off without a hitch. I did have to cut it a tiny bit short, because yet again I was running late. I did get to pass the local bike police force when coming up to campus. If push came to shove, I think I could out run them as long as they didn't call in their cruiser friends. The rain is really refreshing, I just am not looking forward to the cold. I know that I need to get a new shell to protect me for the winter, but I haven't been able to decide on one just quite yet. REI here I come -- learn me something good and keep me dry while your at it.
