Friday

Friday = Wednesday in actuality for me.

Today wasn't a bad day. Lack of water and food for most the day made me a bit cranky but no one complained too much. Errands for most the morning and then normal bike shop stuff. Signs being made and inventory put on the floor.

Had a commuter buddy for the first time today. A co-worker from the shop rode from Matthews, NC (15 miles east) on the bus this morning to Uptown. We synced uptown and caught the bus to Davidson, NC (20 miles north) and then rode the 5 miles to work from Davidson to the shop. The last part bus/ride is my daily commute. I was glad to be able to share some insight and time with someone on my commute. He drives roughly 90 miles per day in his car or motorcycle/scooter so even if he can do this commute 3 times a week he will really be saving money. (And being green.)

Another step forward in my mind. I'm pretty certain if I didn't do this commute daily he wouldn't of even allowed it to pass through his mind. On this note of commuting. I am attending a meeting, on Monday, with Ingersoll Rand at their headquarters to promote commuting and cycling. Many details to nail out before Monday but the idea is bi-modal commuting, company encouragement, maps and maybe cycling safety/mechanic classes.

Is it wrong that at 9pm I'm in bed? A CD to make and then I'm hitting the sack.
