My Bicycle is My Bus.

you have heard the story.
uta changes bus routes, leaves the masses to deal with completely inane routes of spiraling winter destruction. same story here. my route was cut that went straight to the library and was replaced with the early morning surprise defunct bus route. these buses are supposed to be fast, faster, but what is the point of going fast if you aren't going where the people need you to go?
..and then the January 2008 price increase.

i live by liberty park. i work at the slc library. so while i commute on my bike, i can not yet be called a commuting warrior to those that transverse much greater distances. however, despite being reimbursed by my work for $45 of the monthly pass, i have decided that i am not going to buy a bus pass. i am going to commute on bike and by foot when conditions are as such that the mighty bicycle struggles against old man winter are too great.

i will still ride trax from time to time, but as little as possible and mostly for Ubombs and inlaw visits down in Murray.
