Today on the bike I went back and forth to work twice, which was about 12 miles total, but then when I got home in the evening I decided I needed a little bit of food, specifically bananas. I'm eating two bananas per day now in efforts to overall boost my potassium intake.
I'm getting pretty good at locking the bike. I wish it went a little faster. Even though I'm locking it to a bike rack in a well lit area of the parking lot by Pavillions, I am constantly looking over my shoulder. I solidly locked the wheels to the frame with cables and the seat was locked down with a cable that was threaded through the U-lock. All the cable ends were threaded through the U-Lock, and then the U-Lock and the frame were locked to the bike rack. It all went very smoothly. If I'd wanted to lock down the handlebars, I would have needed my third cable, but honestly, if someone were to steal the handlebars, they'd have to cut the brakes and the damage would be substantial. The good thing is that I have enough bananas now to last me for five days, so I don't have to shop for more until Saturday. I also indulged and got my favorite cheese bagels and some cream cheese. They are definitely NOT on the high potassium diet, but I have to ease myself into a more vegetarian lifestyle and ultimately a vegan lifestyle (although both possibilities were hammered over the weekend when I made fried chicken nuggets. Oh well!).
