Took the afternoon as a relaxing, do nothing, day. I read my book for class, worked on my bicycle and just chilled out. Quickly recreated RideCharlotte.com into Arleigh's cycling blog. Trying to keep too much bike lingo off this Arsbars blog as many friends & family members read it. Just simply don't get it.
Last night I guess Fay finally really hit us. Riding to and from class and the gym was rather exciting and cleansing. I quickly got lectures from family members that were worried but I couldn't of resisted if I tried. Rain and cycling is something I have always enjoyed. As a kid I would hop on my bike with no questions when it was pouring out. The streets, last night, in Charlotte were flooded, the wind was high and my visibility was low. I wouldn't of traded those minutes in for anything. The rain seemed to wash many stresses and thoughts away. Leaving me with just me, my bike and a headlight.

That is a wonderful picture.
Hey, I recently found my best friend from college via Facebook. Turns out he is in Charlotte as well and is just starting to try to get into the bike commuting thing.
If you get a moment, check his fledgling blog at:

Have a good one.
