Today, I learned a few things:
1. My bike is a jealous creature. I normally don't have a problem with tightish turns. I fell over. (I'm fine, bike's fine. I'm just a little embarrassed and have a road-topography bruise on my knee.)
2. Riding in the afternoon in an urban area that's decided to hold a "We don't suck!" holiday event in multiple locations is a terrible idea.
3. I need to rethink my winter clothing somewhat. Warm, but not quite warm enough. I think just a long sleeve jersey should do it. (Primal, where is my order?)
4. My new jacket is awesome.
5. I need a new battery for my computer.
6. I am actually capable of repairing minor bike things. BF took a look at my bike when I got back and was surprised.
7. Sometimes, a mile and a half is enough.

(I can't wait to get back home to a non-urban area!)
Hopefully yours went better than mine.
