On the commute this morning I turned over 5,000 pedal miles for the calendar year. Be safe, it's a wet low visibility foggy one.

Warm wet pedal to work this morning. Watch those leaves y'all. Saw the Adolf Hitler Halloween coworker being escorted off the property by security this morning. Yay!

A coworker dressed up as Hitler on Friday. Mustache and swastika. He works in a different building but made his presence known across the complex.

Over layered this morning. Lots of contract Amazon drivers in their private vehicles driving poorly.

Windy headwind commute for me. Not hating that warm breeze. One car dude going the opposite direction on a five lane road yelled at me. I think he said have a great day. Really said get off the road.

In the mornings I pedal by a couple of homeless that sleep in a covered bus shelter on the bench. I'm thinking about them, listening to the rainstorm outside. #benchlife

Commuter tire leak was coming from a spoke. Filled it up with the compressor at work a few times through the day. Gave it some shakes and kept the spoke hole dead bottom. It's holding. Stopped at lbs and picked up a roll of muc off rim tape. 1 blatant red light runner this morning. Not even close.

Commuter had a flat this morning. It held air, bead had broke, still had plenty of sealant, might be screwed later today as I did not get that pop. Mondays huh.

So many cars out this morning. Very busy pedal into work. Must be the balloons. Maybe something else is afoot?

Haven't been a longtime follower of UCI. That stage 5 team time travel at the Vuelta yesterday was fun to watch. Good to see Jorgenson in the top ten overall.
