34 miles before i got to work today.

-one block from my place, the fire dept. showed up. all i saw was a couple watching a small girl try to control a large, shirtless dude.
-it’s dark out at 5 am. people need to have reflective tape on their clothing if they’re walking/running. i can’t see you (the bike path isn’t lit). this guy scared the shit outta me when i rolled up on him and he seemed to appear out of nowhere. he just was not wearing anything reflective so my [weak] light didn’t catch him.
-also, wtf is up with all these cyclists not wearing their helmets? you’re up at 5am, doing laps around the reservoir. put on a helmet. it’s dark out.
-also, get some lights for your bike. it’s dark out.

27 miles all before i got to work this morning. the worst part of this ride is not going up the gigantic hill to enter into cherry creek state park, but turning around and going back down. i’m scared i’m going to fly off my back and down into the ravine. or into a tree, etc.
