bike rant
My right leg HURTS. I think I have a bruised muscle. I can't walk, or flex my calve... but I can still ride! It's funny how you can ride when you can't walk. Like after I did a half marathon I could not walk even a block, but I could ride 7 miles to work every day.
This morning the traffic was horrible. Well, it was great for me, bad for the cars. I get to work much faster when they just sit there without moving in a state of total gridlock. I really appreciate that. But I think they should turn their cars off. The fumes bother me.
I also find the way they block the cross streets so traffic can't get through that way either very helpful! Red light? green light? No matter. It's all smooth sailing.
I love the queens midtown tunnel at rush hour.
Also let me give a shout-out to the cabby near E. 61st who did not cut me off and trap me behind a bus, but rather, let me through, since he had enough sense to realize that nobody was going anyplace in that jam. Well, nobody in a car, at least.
