aseBike shopping achieved. My Trek 7.3 FX and I will gleefully tool along hill and dale and Market Street all summer long.
New bike firsts: street biking of greater than two blocks; biking on Market Street*; bus bicycle rack (90% idiot-proof). Tomorrow: more urban cycling practice, emphasis on likely commuter route.
*And by "Market Street", I mean the minimum crossover distance. If the synergistic risks of buses, taxis, weird turn lanes, privately owned cars, gratings, pedestrians, delivery trucks and vans, bus islands, streetcar tracks, and more reckless cyclists doesn't scare you, well, it scares me.
