Gotta have a clean bike

After the rain last night the bike is a little dirty. Well, I was going to get a rag and my handy dandy bike cleaner and clean up bit, but I left my handy dandy can of bike polish spray at home. So it's either back to Walmart, or just get some further up the road, and ride dirty today. Oh, wait. Look's like - it is - tucked right in there next to my tools-n-stuff was my handy dandy bike polish. So a little cleaning here, and a little cleaning there, and I am ready to ride. Onward to DC, then to a campground somewhere in New Jersey. I'm not taking the time to see the sights in DC, but will do that next time when I can spend more than an afternoon there. Besides, I don't want to get tangled up in a bunch of political discussions with those politicians and other political fanatics because, in my view, politics means nothing inless everyone is willing to do things that really make a difference. All the finger pointing and leveraging and excuse-making just perpetuates the silly stuff that sometimes makes being a human being an embrassment to our other species on the planet. When they look at us, the animals must think ... When are those humans going to get it together?

Back to the important stuff now ... Let's ride.
