Tokyo, 2008.02.12

I cycled to the office today, and both my bike and I were both a little rusty this morning. The bike's chain was dull red and stiff, and my lungs and legs were complaining before I gone much past the first hill and dale.

My bike's chain can always be oiled, but it's the rider that seems to getting slower to bounce back.

It was raining as I was returning from work, so naturally I had a flat tire. The rain eased up as I changed the tire, for which I was grateful. But in the fading light I noticed that I'd lost one of screws holding the rack to the bike.

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that shit.
