That's a Long Ride for Someone With Nothing to Think About

I stopped by a co-worker's house (same one that sold me the road rig and helped assemble the hardtail) Thursday after work and got the hardtail's wheels trued. They actually weren't that bad; turns out the wobble I saw was mostly uninflated tire not seating perfectly. The rear wheel developed a flat, so I need to get around to checking the tire and tube this weekend. I could've gotten a small puncture in the tube while riding around the Riverside Park trails a few days prior.

Someone told me that today is Bike-to-Work Day, but it's actually next Friday. I rode in anyways, as it's been a bit too long. After work, some co-workers and I are going to ride the towpath of the Enfield Falls Canal. We're riding from North to South and back, which is 9 miles, and then I'll be riding back home from there. Should be 27 miles all-told, but as I'm optimistically planning to hit up Rentschler Field and scout the ride to the stadium before the upcoming USA Soccer vs Czech Republic match, it'll be near 34+ miles. Should the box office be open, I'll also pick up tickets.
