I haven't updated because I have been busy enjoying my life.
1- Bike season is in full swing. Last year on May 15 I had biked to work three times. This year I'm already at eleven commutes, which is pretty good. If I ride tomorrow I'll be at twelve, or six weeks worth. Next week I'm on vacation so I'll fall behind my two/week pace. I'm definitely on pace to crack 1000 miles.
If I
bike like a Hobbit, I'm just coming into sight of
Weathertop.
2- More excitingly, I have a girlfriend. I've been cooking her dinner most nights, with many new recipes in place. We've done some concerts and movies, and we walk our dogs together a lot. So there's that.
