that would be cool to see pics of broken glass and trash and junk.  if there isn't a thread for posting pics of road trash from commutes there should be.  I occasionally see bumpers lying around.

I was inspired to write this poem because of this mornings ride.  Other than this I have nothing else to share with you this morning. 

It is titled,

Headwind

headwind, headwind,

go away,

try to blow

some other way

the end

I have to confess, I totally forgot to report something... I just remembered now...  Im gonna call 311 or whatever... there was an open man hole, near the bike lane, on Lawrence, just west of Broadway, northside of street.  there was no construction of sign or anything... hope no one falls into it.

@Robert

I really will post when I'm riding again.  Was in South America for a week.  Came back with a cold that lasted a week.  Had training that lasted a week.  Now cold turned into sinus infection and I'm on horse pills...

I will ride again...

Saw a cyclist and taxi driver at Des Plaines and Monroe engaged in a heated dispute this morning around ~7:15. Not sure what happened.

Should I have stopped to give solidarity to the cyclist, or is better not to get involved in other people's business?

Unless there was damage I'd have suggested to the cyclist a confrontation wasn't worth it.

Was out a little before 7 this morning, the wind was intense but the rain had yet to really get going. Saw one other cyclist fighting the good fight on Milwaukee.

I got started a little late. Rain was only for a short bit intense, but I had an awesome tailwind for most of the ride. Sweet morning Monday ride to start the working week off right. Saw 0 other cyclists after the past few days where there have been legion.
