It's been a while...

The question needs an answer so, yes... Biker Dude still rides a bike. The thing is, he works at a bike shop.
So? What's the deal about that?
Well, the thing is... when the weather is just right for bike riding, people bring their bikes to a bike shop, or else they go to one to buy stuff, or a new bike, or to get theirs serviced. This makes the bike store busiest during when..? During bike riding season. Therefore, it's ironic that people who work at bike shops don't actually ride, or get to ride, as much as people think they do.
So to compensate for that phenomenon, biker dude rides his bike to work. On days when the weather allows of course.
But where before it was a 30 mile ride to, and then 30 from work, 60 total, now it's an 11 1/2 there and 11 1/2 back.
Not as much time and distance for there to be as many stories to tell. Plus, now it's more of a city ride. Dealing with cars, and the ummmm, to put it nicely, unpleasant and dipshit brained people who drive them. Fill in as many four letter words as you can come up with and I'm sure they are all appropriate.
Getting behind the wheel of a car turns at least 50% of the humans who do so into the most impatient, angry, me first selfish clueless ignorant and inconsiderate jerks on the planet. Again, fill in with your imagination any four letter words you can think of.
But who wants to hear stories like that?
There's enough of them on the news.
So till something worth telling comes up, or comes to mind, hang in there and be patient.
Stories are coming.
