I decided since it was supposed to be nice yesterday that I'd take the 9er to the team lead meeting (I had enough time after work to run home, suit up, and take the scoot.) I checked the weather before I left the office, 10% chance of rain all day. I was willing to risk getting a little wet. 2 minutes after I get back to the office, one of the engineers informs me that theres a line of storms at the edge of town. It rained until well after I got home. I also realized that it's time to recoat...

I decided today that I'd finally ride all the way around loop 410 here in San Antonio. I've lived here for over 2 years, and have yet to hit the south side. I managed to make it a bit over half way before I started to get cold.

The only one of these...

I came in with most of my layers on tonight, the commute wasn't too bad until Alinosa tried to race me in his F-150. Once we got on the 'home stretch' I hit the gas and damn near slid off the back of my seat. I blame the Tour Master pants and their slick butt. The only thing cold was my nose and eyes. I'll really get to test it on the ride home...theres already 14 degrees (Fahrenheit for you freaky foreigners) difference between then and now. Still an hour and a half until I leave, which could...
