Glow-In-The-Dark BeerAs you can imagine, I didn't quite feel up to a sub-freezing full commute with my mouth all torn up.I took the bus. Still got some riding in, obviously. I had to teach a bike-on-the-bus-virgin how to load his bike onto the rack on the front of the bus. It's nice to see there are still some people willing to start multi-modal commuting with winter approaching. Now I'm enjoying a Red Hook Long Hammer IPA. So smooth. Hoppy and delicious. A few more days and I'll be able to eat real food again. No, this wasn't (entirely) my supper. Posted byNoahat19:320commentsLinks to this post Labels:baz,commuters,commuting,PhotosBefore the novocaine wears off...No work today. Got the Wisdom teeth pulled. I'll spare you from the photograph of my extracted teeth.I am a severe trypanophobe, and my wife (who's been with me for about 12 years) has never seen me faint or go into a seizure until today. Good times. Now I'm gonna try to sleep this off while my face is still numb.Posted byNoahat12:256commentsLinks to this postLabels:bazNothing like it...I checked mail today and found a bunch of eerily identical envelopes from the hospital. I'm talking a BUNCH of them. Bills totaling $27,397.85 to be exact. Then my wife pointed out that we only had to pay $450.00 of it. Insurance rocks. Not that I have $450 in my sock drawer (or probably even in my 401(k), haha) but it's heck of a lot better than the cost of a brand new Mini-Van or something. So w00t for insurance.I didn't really ride today. Yesterday, I had to get home FAST long before bus service starts, and used my Guaranteed Ride Home to snag a taxi. That meant leaving The Twelve locked up in the (relatively) secure parking garage overnight. By relatively secure, I mean after business hours, all the doors are shut, it's patrolled, and high-res cameras record the entrances and exits. No cameras anywhere near my bike, though.Anyhow, I didn't bring riding clothes to work, so I just dragged the bike home on the D bus. I probably did about two miles of walking and bike riding combined today.We'll see what tomorrow brings.Posted byNoahat20:315commentsLinks to this postLabels:baz,commutingFaux Toes Du JourTaken on my way to pick up my lunch  Oh yeah. More fun at the hospital.  Posted byNoahat18:541 commentsLinks to this postLabels:baz,commuting,PhotosIt's going to be kind of like...this.That's right. World of Warcraft: Wrath of The Lich King comes out at midnight. With my wife being an avid gamer, I'll be right there with her when the doors open. Thankfully, it won't be 4 degrees Fahrenheit like it was last time I did this. Hopefully, I don't come down with a gnarly case of the "bug" after a late night, either.I don't play computer games. I usually fill my free time doing security research (both physical and information security), networking online with like-minded folks (cyclists, geeks, and security researchers) and writing technical articles about all sorts of things from automobile repair to computer programming. Still, it's fun to go to these midnight doorbuster things. You get to meet a diverse group of people that all have one thing in common. That's even more interesting when you have something in common with many of them yourself, but not the thing in common that brought them all together at midnight: a potentially unhealthy addiction to World of Warcraft. Any one person standing in line has to be in possession of at least one character in the game that's at or approaching Level 70 in order to actually have anything to gain from the expansion pack.Losing my wisdom One thousand five hundred.That's how many milligrams of Ibuprofen it takes per day to kill off the pain my wisdom teeth are putting me through. I don't take pain meds. I'm the kind who will try to ride it out if I can. I can't. Monday, these puppies are coming out! Due to a fortunate genetic defect (you know, among my many unfortunate ones) I was born without buds for several of my teeth, both lower third molars (wisdom teeth) being among them. Only my upper right Wiz is giving me trouble right now, but the other one needs to be yanked out as well. It's been a bus-heavy week. I woke up way late yesterday and took a later bus than usual. Pernicious, bone-chilling drizzle persuaded me to catch a bus for the trip home yesterday as well. I had trouble sleeping last night (tooth) and drug my bike to the bus with my tail between my legs this morning. I had forgotten about some crazy motivational seminar downtown. The bus was packed like a sardine can because a few extra people thought it would be smart to take the bus to get to said seminar. Indeed, they were smart. The rush for precious parking spots downtown made for some pretty interesting traffic jams. The bus aisles were easily as packed as the streets.I can only imagine what the streets will be like this evening when the seminar's over. I did think it was cool that quite a few suburban folks had the forethought to give transit a try, though. Most of them had never been on "The JO" before. Some of them mentioned that other routes might work for their daily commute. Gas prices might be falling here in KC, but I think the high cost of transportation as a whole was enough to cause a lasting paradigm shift for many suburbanites.

Temps dropped and rain set in shortly after departure. No problem, though.    Random Tunage:Nirvana - Smells Like Teen SpiritNine Inch Nails - The Only TimePosted byNoahat21:356commentsLinks to this postLabels:cold,commuting,Photos,weatherBreaking the silenceI've been quiet. Heck, it feels like I haven't updated in a week! It's only been five days, I guess.On a personal level, it's been a crazy few days. That's all I'll say about that.Now, weather forecasts are starting to call for precipitation and sub-freezing temperatures. I still have a Diamondback Sorrento frameset with very little in the way of components to transform it back into The Goat, the bike that goes anywhere I need it to go while crushing obstacles in its path. At this point, a wheelset, inner tubes, cassette and chain, and a LOT OF cleaning and lubrication of the moving bits (shifters, cables, brake levers, pivots and the like) will be the cheapest way to get it on the road. I still have tires to put on it that did well in the snow and ice last season.I was pleasantly surprised to find temps above freezing this morning and it looks like most of this week we'll have dodged the ice-and-snow bullet. The Twelve is safe and usable for now. I refuse to take it out in the snow and ice, though. Not only would its skinny, treadless tires be a bad match for ice, but I'm not nearly willing to sacrifice it to the Salt God yet. The Goat makes a good winter beater, and I still have hopes of setting it up with an internally-geared hub before the worst of the weather sets in.I "only" logged 83 miles last week, but the reality is that more than half of those miles took place on Monday. I rode the full trip to and fro, then went to the Monday night ride. That means the rest of the week was pretty pathetic. I'm still hell-bent on meeting my third and final goal for the year. With plenty more than 500 miles left to ride, I should probably try to take advantage of the above-freezing days we have left. Unfortunately, I didn't do that this morning.With the colder weather, I've been doing a lot less recreational riding and a lot more geeking out in my laboratory. Yes, I have a laboratory. Things like writing networking tutorials, playing with the latest version of OpenBSD (just released last week) and stuff like that.  Oh, and it looks like I get to be a Juror next month. Ugh. It's close enough to ride there (a little further than riding to church). Oh, and everyone, please swing by MNBicycleCommuter and wish Doug a speedy recovery.Random Tunage:Sasha - MongooseMoshic & Landa - FazaPosted byNoahat10:264commentsLinks to this postLabels:baz,cold,commuting,Photos,weatherSome of my favorite days of the year (KC Skyline from Summit)I really like the autumn days right after the DST cut-over. I arrive downtown just in time to see the sun come up, and the weather here in KC is usually still somewhat mild in early November. This morning, temps were in the high 50s with a strong wind out of the south. I pretty much coasted into downtown, except for the death slog up Summit. (West Bottoms from Case Park)Posted byNoahat06:582commentsLinks to this postLabels:commuting,PhotosThis is one for the books. It doesn't matter which side of the political fence you hail from or which candidate emerges. This is history in the making either way, and I'm glad I could take part in it. This is the third collision I've seen in as many days at this same location. The SPUI might move a lot more cars than other interchange designs, but unless you can move at a sustained pace of 35 MPH or so (that excludes most cyclists), these are pretty hairy. I took this while I was waiting for the bus this afternoon (I didn't feel like braving 30 MPH headwind again). Fitting, I suppose, that I'm writing this post from the Emergency Room. Yes, another visit to the ER. Wife's not doing too well today. Posted byNoahat17:543commentsLinks to this postLabels:baz,commuting,PhotosKansas CityMy wife woke me up at 5:41 (I'm usually up at or before 5:00 AM) and I'd obviously missed meeting up with Gray. I called him en-route and he seemed to know where he was going. Maybe tomorrow or later this week.I scrambled to get my stuff together, threw on my work clothes and barely made it to the bus stop in time. I brought riding clothes for the homeward commute, though. I'm going to have to zip home quickly tonight if I want a chance to vote.More Kansas City photos from yesterday:UtiliCorp  Junk piled up in the ground floor of the New England building The nearly-demolished grain elevator Posted byNoahat08:250commentsLinks to this postLabels:commuters,commuting,PhotosOlder PostsSubscribe to:Posts (Atom)Privacy PolicyThis site is driven by software that uses third-party cookies from Google (Blogger, AdSense, Feedburner and their associates.)
