After going to HK for 2.5 weeks. I just bike once. I just did not get this into the routine again. I prayed that I could get back to the routine this week.

Week 5 is trival.Week 6. Wow, there was some light when I get out this morning. I made up 5-10 minutes of time just because I can see the trail. I did not bike home though. Will see what happens tomorrow.

I notice the first time that stars are above me when I begin the ride. So so cool.... My headlight is failing me so I will get off the trail when I could. Still envy the ppl that rode by swiftly. Another successful day, more to come. The only problem is I forgot my computer at work when I leave. I had plan to do some work tonight. Anyway, I had a minor headache, I think God wants me to rest

Still stumbling, drop my bike when I walk across the railroad track. Thank God I did not break anything. The headlight is getting dim. May be I need 2 just like an automobile. I have notice I need to carry the bike from its left, cuz my right arm is stronger. More practice, more confidence.

Another successfully ride to work Thursday. I need to do it more often. I was so clumsy that day when I get on the train, I stumbled and drop the bike on the train floor. Luckily I was not hurt, and I hope same for the bike. When the train stops at the station, I saw all the graceful bikers rode away. While this clumsy person try to get on the bike and ride. Hopefully with plenty of practice, one

No biking commute this week. I had an appointment Monday and it was raining for the rest of the week. I was concerned about having to get there early enough to buy a ticket and catch the train. Week 3 should be ok, the weather forecast is good and I got my 20 trip pass already. Keep it up, go for it.

Finally, the inaugural bike to work day. Yesterday 09/26/2006.The first day was great. I woke up, not too tired and start riding. I was dark when I left the house. It was a little bit hard to see. As I ride on, the sky gets brighter. There are mist rising from the creek as I ride. I ran into an old friend at the train station. We talked as the train took us toward the Great America Station.

Sunday Morning, I decide not to do dry run. I slept in and did a relax ride to UC BART station. This ride is to make sure the slime is distributed properly in the tires and also practice my on the road biking skills. I got home safe and sound without incident.

Finally Dry Run is successful. I was 20 minutes late starting but I got there in less than 45 minutes. It was early enough not to have many cars. I survey the ACE train station. The ticket office is close then. Parking is full on a Saturday morning. I would doubt finding a parking in the morning on a weekday would be easy. So biking or taking the bus would be more appropiate. Let me try again

Instructions:1. Get newspaper/sale paper to cover the floor. Especially if you have carpet floor. Hardwood, Linolin, bricks etc are probably ok. This is just to make clean up easy.2. Open the slime bottle, pull the security seal off.3. Use the valve removal tool on the top of the bottle to remove valve.4. Be careful of the valve, when you are removing it, air will be released from the tire and it

I have tried to slime treat my tires. 2 weeks ago I got a flat by some very trivial thorn seed.I bought slime from Sportsmart. It is for treating tires to prevent future flats. I finally got some time to apply it today. For bicycles, the recommendation is 4 oz for each tire. The bottle contains 8 oz.Somehow I treated the back tires first. First problem: It is very hard to find out if you used
