I think I'm taking the metro unless I rush to finish a bike -but despite being supposed to be a beater bike, it's ending up too nice for me to not worry about getting stolen.
anyone have any suggestions on about what time I should try to face the metro rush?

I'd say go early and get coffee and lunch beforehand.
I think I'm riding my old pink mixte down the met branch trail. While I'd hate to lose it, it's replaceable and the cheapest bike I've got.
I'll be carrying a bright yellow or pink sign that says
"You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own spelling"
on one side and
"come on people now, smile on your brother"
on the other.

I even had 2 signs planned.
One:
Calm.
Down.
The other:
"Your politics is not my cup of tea."
Cat - Is that your flame Surly on CL? Good luck.

I love those signs, ladies. Very clever.

I'm not sure now if I'm going. I've had a stomach virus for the past couple of days and it's entirely gone yet -- I'm still living on ginger ale and toast (and pepto bismol).
- Gray 2010 carbon WSD road bike, Rivet Independence saddle
- Red hardtail 26" aluminum mountain bike, Bontrager Evoke WSD saddle
- Royal blue 2018 aluminum gravel bike, Rivet Pearl saddle
Gone but not forgotten:
- Silver 2003 aluminum road bike
- Two awesome worn out Juliana saddles
