Wednesday night follies

Note to self: just 'cause you have a waterproof cover for the bike that's securely velcroed into place when said bike is not in use does not mean a daddy longlegs will not think your helmet is a nice place for a nap.

By the time I left work at 4PM, there was a noticeable breeze coming in off the bay, so I got in a four mile jaunt down to the south shore. The paved path on the beach side of the road is a bit uneven, but not bad to ride on as long as one keeps an eye out for oblivious pedestrians, of which there were a fair number, going out or in from the beach. I used my bell a lot.

Think I'm gonna just day-trip Purgatorio. Can't really think of a good reason not to. There's stuff I could be doing on Sunday that needs to be finished.

Did you discover said daddy long legs before or after you put said helmet on your head?

Before, fortunately. Shook him out onto a patch of bricks under the back stairs, no harm done. However, I guess this means I ought to keep the helmet in the house.
