Did anyone ride 8/3?

I rode. I rode to work in the rain and got a flat tire 1 mile from my office.
I went through the guard gate there and then pumped it up only to hear the air whoosh out as fast as i pumped it in. BAD...
I hitched a ride with some folks who drive delivery inside our company and then changed the tube with the help of a very helpful male coworker. while he was finding all the rips in the tube, I located the shard of glass sticking straight into the tire and pulled it out.

I rode to the bike shop on my new tire and discovered my bike computer was not working. I stopped and tried to readjust the sensor but it didn't help.
I rode into a headwind on my bianchi but it was beautiful out. I got to ride through the International District AND downtown and finally got to the bike shop.
At the bike shop, my new bike was nowhere in sight. They all thought it was pretty funny, but eventually they pulled it out of where ever it was.

After 2 hours at the bike shop, the bike was fitted, set up and ready to go home. With a wind at our back we saled home. The new bike is fantastic.
in all i rode about 18 miles today.

I rode - 26 miles. It was the nicest day we've had in a long time here! Finally, low humidity!
