too quick to grab the keys lately
time to get back into my routine
the thirty mile roundtrip commute
day after day after day after day
rain sun heat snow wind
its all theraputic pedaling

my mom passed away sunday morning around 7:50.
we were at her side till the end.
she's at peace now after many tough struggles.
but its hard as hell without her.

car inspection didn't go so well.
how many years worth
of tires, chains, and gears
would have that bought?
this is just another reminder
of why i'm glad
we only own one car.

sometimes the quicker route to work isn't. the panaracer ribmos are fine tires but still prone to the occasional puncture. this morning it was a large and rusty staple along the debris strewn shoulder. these are tough tires though; the number of cuts and slashes in the tread far out number the quantity of flats i've suffered. soon time to retire this one as it's seen many a mile...

get'em while they're fresh
