Is Every Day Garbage Day on Wells St?

Does anyone else notice this?

Garbage day seems to be every week day from where Lincoln ends to Division...smells wonderful on these hot days.

Imagine what the smell would be like if they didn't pick it up!

Also, how 'bout the Wells Street Automotive tow trucks idling with their doors open into the bike lane?

I look at Wells as kind of an obstacle course into the loop.  Still is one of my favorite routes.

There were a lot of bikes on Wells this morning.  Nice to see.

My favorite this summer has been dodging the horse poop in the Wells bike lane. Especially on rainy days!

There was this guy at CM who wants to get rid of all horse drawn carriages in the city and employ more cyclecarriages.

No doubt!  Thank God for my unsightly fenders!

For a while it seemed like every day had been beer truck delivery day (blocking the bike lane). I don't know if it's because I'm commuting a little earlier in the mornings, but I haven't been as bothered by it lately. Also, nice to not be dodging SUV's dropping kids off at Walter Payton.

The smell has been really bad this week, because of a street fair on Lincoln last weekend. While they do a good job of cleaning up the place after the street fair ends, the stench hangs around for a number of days. Rain does help in this case.

By next week the stench will be gone...
