The ride to bike night was great, but the ride home in the dark took longer than expected due to road construction.<br /><br />@Dar - Those darn windows are so high I would have to stand on the boss' desk to see Max. I can see out further into the parking lot but by parking under the window I can't see the bike.<br /><br />@Bobskoot - Yes, I occasionally forget things. I remembered the details about where I left the keys, does that count? If I lock myself out of the house I can punch in a code on the garage opener keypad and get in that way.<br /><br />@Sonja - You had a longer wait that I did. Darn keys being left behind. Hope the weather was nice while you waited.<br /><br />@Gary - The whopping 3 mile commute was trouble free and it was good to ride it. I might even commute on Max more than I thought I would.<br /><br />@Geoff - I did get positive comments. The other attorney in our office wants to ride it. He rode my Ninja but didn't really like it. I think he'd like Max. He doesn't own a bike, just the giant truck that parks beside me. The lady that owns the Mexican restaurant next door also commented on it as I was getting geared up to go meet Troubadour. People really like the colors.<br /><br />@Bluekat - Not good to leave your license at home. I always take my wallet out of my pocket, but I did leave my cell phone in my riding jacket Wednesday night and found it the next evening. Good thing I don't use it very often. My boss is proud of that old brick wall. The building is really old and the basement was dug out by hand and the dirt hauled out with horse and buggy. It has quite a history and has been in my boss' family for 3 generations.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-21679522950939999312011-10-21T09:14:21.615-07:002011-10-21T09:14:21.615-07:00I think one of the hardest things about commuting ...I think one of the hardest things about commuting by bike is getting the organization down for all the gear, and all the things that have to come along for the ride. <br /><br />I struggle to remember where little things were put in which pocket or bag, but my biggest problem seems to be my driver's license being left in the bike jacket. I'll discover this far from home when I'm driving the car. <br /><br />Good on ya, getting a commute in! Max looks good parked next to the old brick wall. Not insulting your building, btw, I think you know by now I love old buildings with character. :)Bluekathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13485258388887249275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-79960609510761544572011-10-20T16:39:54.494-07:002011-10-20T16:39:54.494-07:00Good stuff Trobairitz!

I had a car park next to our CEO's and on the odd occasion I turned up on the bike, I got nothing but positive comments.

My office keys are on my Vespa key chain, so when I take the car... guess what happens. Last time I had to wait 20 mins before another colleague showed up.

Lucky it wasn't the other way around where you arrived home late on a Friday to discover your house keys locked at work along with your house and car keys and the boss was away until Tuesday.<br /><br />Not many of us can look out our windows and stare at our bikes<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Riding the Wet Coast</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-49866322038226537212011-10-19T23:12:02.874-07:002011-10-19T23:12:02.874-07:00Trobairitz - I rode Lucy to work today and she is ...Trobairitz - I rode Lucy to work today and she is parked in the bike cage patiently waiting my return.

It's nice that you have parking right outside your office. Hope you had a great ride to bike night. <br /><br />Richard from the frozen northRichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.com
