Sept. 19 is a good day for Cyclists - Two years running

It was one year ago today that I posted a record number of cyclists during my daily commute. I spotted 38 cyclists that day. Today was 39, 31 over the 9.1 miles I rode home this evening.

For those that enjoy numbers, the evening commute saw 3.4 cyclists per mile and nearly a cyclist per minute.

I knew it was going to be a good day when I had spotted the first six at Peachtree and 5th. Most were commuters but one young lady looked like she was headed out for a night on the town. In my earlier years, I would have followed. I need to start wearing my camera on top of my helmet.

Peachtree was one place the cyclists bunched up, but there was also a cluster coming through the intersection of the PATH trail and North Highland, and then as usual, a group around the Emory campus.

September 19 falls on a Saturday next year so I'm not sure what to do. Do I go to work that day?
