Oh, and I purchased a mountain bike from a friend of mine that will be emigrating to the England next week. So rather than walk the 25-30 minutes to campus (usually at a moderately brisk pace), I'm now getting perhaps a bit more of an intense workout getting there in 15 minutes. The seat needs some adjustment, as I think it's putting a bit too much strain on the area leading up to my knees. Another thing I've noticed is that both cyclists and drivers alike are pretty careless on the road... makes me think that purchasing a helmet should be on my list of priorities!

  1. Definitely get a helmet or, someday, you might end up no beling able to think at all or at the very most think in a rather broken manner. ;-)

  2. Yeah, I nearly died a few years back when I thought it would be funny to bump the back tire of my cousin's bike with the front tire of mine... lost control of my bike, hit a fire hydrant, flipped over the handle bars, and landed on my back. Once I realized that I hadn't been paralyzed, I laid there and laughed at the stupidity of it for a few good minutes.

  3. Get a helmet. For real. You can't trust people in cars.
