Bike to Work week
My friend Amy and I have been having a friendly discussion going about commuters who ride there bike. Currently, she is carless, lives in Boulder, and works from home, so she has an advantage. Myself, my commute is not that long by most people, about 5 miles each way. However, with my job I do end up driving quite a bit to meetings and such. For the past few years, I have riden my bike to work probably a dozen times or so over the course of the summer. A week ago, I finally broke down and bought a new bike. I wanted something that was an around town bike, but I do traverse hills. I ended up getting a Giant Cypress bike that is a combination cruiser style bike and mountain bike. It is great because you ride upright, and it has 21 gears for hill climbing. My challenge from Amy is to keep track of how many times I commute on my bike. For the week of June 18th I rode to work 1 time. This is bike to work week, so I will shoot for more times! For the record though, so far this season I have bike commuted about a dozen times already.

Fuglies June 2007
I found this "lovely" home in a new community today...and I couldn't believe it! What builder, in there right mind, would build a home where the street front was all garage door and driveway! Could you imagine coming home to this...with this being the first thing you saw? What amazes me even more...this home is already sold! It must be spetacular inside! Nahhh...
