Geek Love

What you see above is my Valentine's day gift from my beloved. No, he did not get me a semi-automatic weapon (even better!). The gift, for those of you who do not recognize the picture, is a dual bike rack. Most women, I am guessing, might not consider this a romantic gift. I, on the other hand, do. The bike rack basically means that I can now fit two bikes on my car instead of just the one in my trunk. It means that we can spend a few more weekends together (riding, yes) than we would be able to otherwise. Some women got earrings. I got a bike rack. I think those of you who have spouses who don't participate in your hobbies can appreciate the romance of a shared interest. I would expect no less from someone that I met during a 20-mile run.
(Let me add as a post-script that both of our V-day gifts last year were purchased entirely from Fleet Feet...Great minds...).
