I didn't realize that was today. I'm glad my daughter happened to bike to school today! It was beautiful weather for it. Maybe next year I'll suggest that the school observe the day.

My new basket came today. It is ENORMOUS. I gave my old one to my daughter (her backpack is so heavy, it was uncomfortable to wear it on the bike). My old one, when I got the packing slip, was labeled "basket, huge". If it was huge, the new one is IMMENSE! It's actually designed to hang from the front handlebar, but I took a chance that I'd be able to attach it to my rear rack when I ordered it. I had no problems attaching it.

It is pretty heavy, but I've got it attached with bungies, so I can swap it out for the little trunk when I want a lightweight ride on the weekend.

I'll have no trouble getting my swim bag, work clothes, and lunch to work. If I want to bring an extra book, or run as well as swim, I can do that too, no problem! I think there's room for a small family in there. Anyone want a ride to work?
