  4. 🤦‍♂️ So #BART, in its infinite wisdom, decided that #anime #mascots are the key to fixing overcrowded trains and delays. 🚂💨 Because obviously, cartoon characters are exactly what commuters need when they're late for work! 😂

  6. Hadn't appreciated that my #BusFare went up from £2 ➡️ £3 sometime over the festive season. It's not a huge amount, but as I'm a #publictransport #commuter, it does hit my wallet pretty hard

  7. If you find a wooden-looking round earring (french wire) on the E train, it's mine. I was wearing it when I put on my face shield & respirator to leave for work...

    “Tyson and others say the connector proposal is based on stale #commuter data and obsolete #highway design goals in an attempt to shave an average of 4 minutes off morning and evening drive times. They question the design, cost, safety and need for the project, as well as its impact on the #environment, regional economy and overall quality of life in #SouthPortland, Scarborough, #WestbrookMaine, #GorhamMaine and beyond.

    "#M4ST is a coalition of individuals, nonprofits and other groups seeking alternatives to highway expansion in #GreaterPortland. So far, over 12,000 Mainers have signed the group’s petition calling for a halt to planning the Gorham Connector.

    "Coalition members include #GrowSmartMaine, #TroutUnlimited, #SierraClubMaine Chapter, #SmilingHillFarm, #MovingMaineNetwork, #PortlandBikePed Advisory Committee and Westbrook #SafeMobility and Access Committee.“

  13. I feel like I'm the most badass commuter around. Jeep? No hands. LRT/MRT? No hands. Bus pag tayuan? No hands. Tricycle pag nakaupo sa little storage box on the side of Manong driver? No hands. Angkas, Joyride, Moveit? No hands. 'Pag di kaya, because of human limits, at maximum, index finger lang. My BEEP card is calloused. I live on the edge. I breathe in the risk. I take all my chances. I NEVER FAIL, and most importantly, I NEVER FALL.
    But recently, I've noticed the competition get fiercer. Once, on a very busy day, siksikan ng sobra, I saw a Lasallian that kept his balance perfectly throughout the whole ride. Pagkaikot over the Pasig river, the hardest bend throughout the whole Vito Cruz journey, with no handholds, he didn't bump his trainmate ONCE. He was perfectly still, like tea in a teapot. Normally, I could do that in my sleep, but this time, I looked like a fool... I had to grab on to the small edge by the top of the sliding doors.
    I will never forget the humiliation I experienced that day. I have since then leveled up my training at home. Think Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal". I do 5 sets of 10 reps of "HEEHEE, SHAMONE" straight leans. It's been hard, but I can already feel a slight improvement.
    I'll get my title back, Lasallian commuter. I will be the undisputed LORD OF COMMUTING BALANCE ONCE AGAIN!!!

  15. Happy Friday, everyone. Hopefully Friday has meaning for most if not all of us. It has extra meaning for me this week. Starting this month my company has changed it’s hybrid work requirements. Where it used to be that we had to be in the office for 20% of each pay period (basically one day each week), as of March 1st we have to be in the office for 40% of each pay period (basically twice per week). Today is my first, second day of a week. None of us our happy with this, but it’s a whole ton better than being back 80%, which is what we had prior to the pandemic shut down. Oh well. I’ll deal with it. I am still coming in every Wednesday. My group has Wednesdays as a mandate and the second day each week is at everyone’s personal discretion. I am sort of planning on making Mondays my regular second day, just to get it over with, but that didn’t work this week due to the contractors working in the kitchen. Friday was the only day that worked for me. Fortunately there was zero traffic today. I made the 40 mile drive to the office in 45 minutes. If only it were like that every morning.

    In other news, the kids are on the ground. Bellana’s flight landed in Georgia (the US state, not the European country) before I went to sleep last night. Harry’s first flight landed in London well after I nodded off for the night, and his connecting flight landed in Scotland before I woke up this morning. All is well on both of those fronts. Here’s hoping they both have a great time on their trips.

    I am taking advantage of the fact that I am 40 miles from home right now to make my way to IKEA after work. IKEA is about 60 miles from home, but only 20 miles from work. I will head down there as soon as I am free and go to the returns department and bring back a great big pile of stuff that IKEA included in our kitchen redesign blue print that we didn’t end up needing. There is a lot of stuff to return. A lot of stuff. If I get it all done tonight then we don’t have to worry about it, and with the money we get back maybe I’ll be able to afford a hair cut this weekend because damn, do I need a hair cut!

    Anyway, here’s today’s photo-a-day picture. I took it before I did my workout this morning at about 5:40am. It’s only 9:14am now but it’s already felt like a long day.

  16. Those who have taken the train with #KTM will know that the frequency is anywhere between 15 and 30 minutes and if you miss a train, you’ll have to wait for quite some time.

    Recently, a Malaysian radio DJ, JC decided to take the #train with KTM to avoid peak-hour traffic.

    He was utterly disappointed when the train did not show up after more than 1 hour.

  18. After three+ months of daily use and about 2000km, I finally remembered to take some pictures of my most recent build, a #Surly PackRat frame I built up as a #commuter with a #SturmeyArcher #3speed hub in back, generator hub up front, porteur rack (with a Swift Polaris bag) and some weirdo CrMo #Nitto handlebars.

  20. Was just thinking, this morning, how happy I was to no longer have a work commute of the Devil's highway (CT I95 😆 ).
    Brought to mind this tune...written (mostly) at work, after a horrible ride in (actually, a lot was written on the commute...)

  21. Pues tras llegar a #Alacant Terminal, y desayunar un poco, nos vamos en el Cercanías a recorrer toda la línea C-1 del núcleo Murcia/Alicante, en un tren idéntico al de antes (que no mencioné, es de la serie 592 xD)

    I've arrived at Alacant-Terminal, and now leaving in another Cercanías (commuter) calling for #Murcia del Carmen xD same train as the last one, a Series 592 of Renfe.

    Morning Commute, guess what we all want a good spot on the subway but taking your time to get in means you are holding people up behind you. And yes your backpack is too big to wear put it on the floor! #masstransit #commuter #mbta #TheT
