Zero Emissions Except after Eating Beans

That's right! I now have an electric bicycle! The virgin ride was to the supermarket where I carried back 25lbs of groceries.

I have shaved 10minutes from my ride to Saddleback and 20 minutes from my commute to work. This means I can ride 45 miles and still be able to walk. All I need now is to get a flying license and buy that new transforming car-plane Terrafugia Transition http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/engineering/article5489287.ece.

I heart SoCal when season != winter

With the daylight savings time changing again I lost an hour of sleep but gained much more useful daylight.
Today is a good day. First I went to play golf and I carried my clubs on the back of my motorcycle!!! If that wasn't awesome enough, I also raked in the money while playing against the other guys in a skins game.
What better use of the extra sunlight time than to go eat at fashion island and then ride PCH on my way home. I stopped at a store in Laguna Beach called Electric Cyclery (http://www.electriccyclery.com/catalog/) where I test rode a bike outfitted with BionX electric motor....hmmm sounds like a conversion of my road bicycle.
To top things off a hot date awaits me.
