Journal Journal: Stupid Bridge.[Updated] 6
I could almost bike to work, if I were so inclined. Almost. The river crossing was closed to bike traffic in 2002. I knew I remembered crossing the river by bicycle, and now I know that I was not imagining things. Stupid safety concerns. I'm pretty sure that they will not be building a new bike bridge anytime this decade.
In other bike news, the overly helpful salesperson at the bike shop to which I went helpfully suggested that I wait until their bigger big sale at the actual end of the season. I found a bike I want; it was so light I could probably lift it with one finger, which is very helpful for when you lose 9 of your fingers in a tragic machete incident. It was also almost $700. I don't think that bike's fate involves being in the trunk of my car.
EDIT:
It even has a name! Gap 76.
