I rode... Autumn 2011

Tonight's ride was like a two face, harrowing on the way north and glorious on the way home. My eternal curse seems to be being faced with a headwind in both directions so if tonight's ride provided any benefit, it was that I only had to deal with 50MPH gusts one-way.

On the way home a wayward Budweiser 12-pack box lodged itself onto my foot and pedal and I had to do quite the watusi to get it dislodged. Who else has "I survived the great gusts of ought eleven" stories to tell the grandkids?

This is the awesome thing about Autumn. You'll get some crappy weather like we had that initiated this post, then you get an AWESOME week like we're having now. Love bike commuting in Chicago!
