night rider

I'm proud to say I took my first night bike ride this evening. I finally afixed the lights I got for christmas onto my bike, and headed out to see a movie at Harbor East. I must say that in my head I've always been a little intimidated of riding at night. I'm still not completely over my fear of riding in the city, although I'm much better than I was when I first started. anyway, it wasn't that big of a deal, actually. although it was a short ride. but why on earth would you want to spend 25 mins walking somewhere when you can bike in 10? in my world of every second counts, that's how I finally decided to take the plunge and bike at night.
