Biking Around

stormdogI biked over to the SU campus to drop by the geography department. As I was locking my bike up, a couple students in the public administration program were unlocking theirs. One of them had a flat; I offered to let him use the pump I carry. I kind of felt like a classic Hollywood star offering someone a cigarette. *grins* The three of us chatted for a bit while he tried to figure out how to set the pump for Schraeder instead of Presta valves. Alas, his tire did not hold air, but it was fun to meet a couple of people who'll be around the building a lot. I warned them about my facial recognition issues, as I've been trying to proactively do with everyone.
Speaking of, there's a birthday party happening for a few geography students this weeked and nearby Green Lakes State Park. It looks like it's about a ten mile ride, partly along the old Erie Canal towpath; that should be a good time! I have a jar of salsa and bag of chips here to bring, and I'll get to meet some folks.
I'm also going to make sure my bike trailer is all ready to go tomorrow; I'm going to bike over to the other grad-student-heavy housing area, near Westcott, and buy a microwave from one of the geography folks who's moving and getting rid of stuff. I'll need the trailer to haul it back.
