Today would have been perfect too. I'm going up to the mountains to teach a class for work. I had planned on doing this on my bike. Oh well. You guys have fun out there today.

Ride to work day- like I needed that lame excuse. Since Easter (when I put the bike back on the road) I bet I haven't brought the cage more than a dozen times. But it is a pretty day to ride here, and come 15:00 (I get out of work) I will be doing that very thing again.

I ride to work every day, though have the day off today. What I love is that parking is very limited at the hospital, but not with the bike as there's always a spot open in the mc parking area on the first floor of the parking garage (which keeps it out of the Vegas sun during the day). Been using the little Honda Ruckus to ride to work..cost a whole $2.76 to fill up two weeks ago.

Since I'm retired I'll have to ask the neighbor where he works and ride there and back in the morning! Or like Chuck, I could ride to my garage. But then again the bike is already in there. Oh well, I tried.
