Gotta love the kind of driver who backs his porsche out right in front of a family on bikes and then parks it in the bike lane along with their other car, already parked in the bike lane, in the school zone during school drop-off.
Outside of that, I'm a New England-based software engineer by day. I'm also big into #boardgames , and got bitten by the #pickleball bug about two years ago.
I'm also big into various forms of #rock , from melodic death all the way to indie rock. But post-rock/metal and dream pop especially.
For today's first #pickleball session we have 13 people and three of them are named Jeff. Having flashbacks to high school geometry class, when 5/25 were named Jeff and I was the only one who had a clue. Got called on a lot because the teacher was a bit lazy.

And then we headed over to watch the beginning of the Riverwest 24, an annual 24 hour #biking event. There are 1500 riders, 750 volunteers and, once again, no corporate sponsorships.
