I did it. I rode the 2.5 miles from the 506 at 6:55 a.m. down Meandering Way to Arapaho and Coit, jumped on a bus with my bike and enjoyed the strangers I chatted with on our way to Arapaho Center Station. A man made a friendly comment about how the bike was as big as me. Once at the station, I nearly missed the train that impatiently rang for me to climb aboard a car full of straight-faced passengers. A middle-aged, hair-graying man in glasses sitting smiled welcomely at me. I stood in the back next to a door balancing with my bike as the train rode down do the station at Spring Valley. I jumped off with my bicycle, found a way down to the ground and pedaled my way to work. Got in at 7:50 and began to cool off and change into my work clothes before too many folks started to arrive. Put a fresh pot of coffee to brew and started a good day.
What an adventure!

Hey Big D....I take the train to work, too. I agree with you...it's very nice. I get another 20 minutes of sleep because of it. :-)
