Needs to be colder so I can get out of these cotton tee shirts and into a nice wool sweater.

Our tomatoes are doing better this year than last year. Oh wait, that is because we got a plot at the sunny McKinley Park Community Garden and last year we tried to grow them in our mostly shady back yard.

I absolutely love the riding weather we've been having this summer! I no longer feel the need to move to Vancouver or somewhere else with less brutal summers.

Yes - from Naperville to McDonald Cycle Center.

Saw two cars on Warren with their rear windows busted out last night.

I have a bag full of scrap handlebar tape bits (the ends of rolls after a wrap job). Not sure what to do with them, but maybe I will try using them to wrap a set of bars in a multi-hued fashion someday.

Inbound: http://goo.gl/maps/uoJey - 33.3 miles, about 2h 15m on a good day.

Outbound is similar, except I ride on Fulton/Lake with the WSC (West Side Commuters) to Oak Park.
