Things I have done in the last few days

We went to the old college again. I met up with some more people that I hadn’t seen for a while, and some that I probably won’t again see for a while. It was a good time all around though.

Back at home, I found out about this bicycle co-operative. It’s a bunch of people who provide bicycle maintenence and repair bicycles to sell, and that sort of thing. I took my bike there to see about fixing the tire, and they really helped me out. I didn’t really know what to expect, whether it would be very organized or even if there would be anyone there. They seem to have a nice thing going on, though, and lots of people were hanging around and working on bikes or getting work done or whatever. I will probably go back and work for them (volunteer) on Wednesday, and try to get my bicycle maintenence skills up to par.

Unfortunately, the bicycle I have that we were fixing up is really not the right size for me. The frame is too short, and the pedals are too close to the front wheel somehow, and the seat is totally uncomfortable. It’s fine for short rides though, and is definitely better than nothing.
