For those whose ride is an everyday commute, it's preaching to the choir. For the rest, every second Wednesday in July is National Ride to Work Day. WOAH!! MY MISTAKE... IT IS THE 3RD WEDNESDAY!!! Man, I have a lot of messages to correct! If at all possible, and you don't normally, try to find a way to ride your bike to work this July 18 2007. For more information go to the National Ride to Work webpage. Would be neat to see a group of BA.com members with a pic and a story of your daily ride there. Ride safe ps don't feel limited if you're across the pond!

I try to ride every day so you can bet I'll be participating.

Got some, and some antibiotic ear drops. I get excema (one day I will learn how to spell that...) in my ears, and I'm very careful with them. Just really hurts.
