energy sign

Saw this rather interesting sign at my local grocery store the other day. Wondering if we will be seeing a lot more things like this as energy prices rise.

I started my new job today, it was awesome, and daunting. I have so many things to do, I am going to be spending most of this week just laying out in some sort of logical way the way I am going to start doing them. My new job affords me the chance to be around people who are really in love with bicycles, all the time. I can’t think of a better way to help the environment, than to get people out of their cars and onto a bicycle.

Boston is deep in the jaws of slop season. I am not sure what exactly this winter is doing, but it feels very strange. One day it snows a foot, the next day it is almost 50 out, then it will snow again, then it will be in the 60’s. The end result of this sort of cycle is that I spend a lot of time cleaning and oiling my bike chain. I ride every day, and if it is sloppy, well I am riding in the slop, if it is freezing I am riding in the freezing, if it is nice and sunny I am the happiest boy in the world.
