Wow, the new job and the Arctic temps have definitely cut into blogging time. Not that I've ever let the weather keep me off the bike. But I have been sick as a dog for several weeks and am only now starting to come around. Plus I started the new job, so I have to get used to my new route through the city and down to the South End, as well as figure out the new job.
This picture is of Clarendon St about two weeks ago. The new route definitely has a few moments that are scarier than the old route. But all-in-all, they seem pretty equal. I now have to take the Mass Ave underpass on Comm Ave - you definitely have to be ahead of the auto pack to navigate that with any aplomb. Copley at 6pm can be a nuts. I'm not using the pocket PC anymore for pictures (had to leave that with the old job) - I'm using a real honest-to-goodness digital camera instead. The only down-side is that I own it. If the Pocket PC went skittering under a Brookline Ice & Coal truck it wouldn't have mattered. Not so with the digital. Anyway, once I get on top of this new job I'll be back to my old Suicide Bicycle Ride self.
