pan-am games already getting on my nerves

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2015.06.17

Today I witnessed a cyclist take a tumble as he navigated some unannounced barriers on our route. The barriers were from the spreading mess that is the athletes' village. If they completely close Cherry street, I will have lost my second route to work in three weeks.

I'm betting that they will in fact close it, more's the pity.
