I went out for donuts this morning, and when I was coming back I reached Gateway Transit Center just as a pair of SD-70s were pulling out on a (non-revenue) trip downtown. So I stopped the bicycle, hopped off, unfastened the saddlebag, tried to balance the bicycle, pulled out my purse, tried to balance the bicycle, pulled out my camera, tried to balance the bicycle, cursed, dropped my purse, reached over and manually crooked the front wheel so the bicycle wouldn’t scoot away from me, and then finally took a few pictures as the train pulled out of the station and crossed over i205 on the way to downtown.

Yes, it was cloudy and cold out. Why do you ask?
