Robin has been working in Bowling Green KY and coming home for the weekends. For reasons I won’t go into here, she is working today, Saturday, and staying the weekend. I made a last-minute decision to join her for the weekend.
I rented a car, which by the way, if you don’t have a credit card, it’s a little more hassle. I don’t have car insurance anymore, so I also paid extra for the insurance from the rental place.
I drove down after work yesterday. Driving (mostly) the speed limit, I got here in about two hours.
I know I said I was “off the bike”, but that’s only partially true. I’ve ridden to work once this past week. The only bike riding I’m doing is transportation related.
I’ve ridden the bus some, and I don’t like it. My bus route is rather crowded. I’ve car-pooled with a co-worker, and Robin has taken me to work a couple of times when she was home during the week. I’ve even considered walking to work. I have walked home from downtown, but it wasn’t a work day, and I wasn’t carrying a laptop.
I’m still waiting to know the long-term plan for my neck issue. I may end up riding the bikes as they are, stick to recumbents only, or go with higher handlebars on my existing bikes. It’s too early to know right now.
