Well, here we are in the 13th edition of Max’s Back Pocket. I think we are starting to catch up to the never-ending Rocky series. We had a nice long weekend and a pretty low key Memorial Day. I was able to extend my streak of biking to the hospital all four days again. There was a slight misfire on Thursday, though. I tried to jump a curb I had no business jumping and popped...
I was able to drum up enough motivation to start biking to work again this week. I really don’t have any excuses for not to be biking in. My one-way commute is 2.1 miles and only takes between 10-12 minutes on the bike. I suppose the lax dress code at work certainly makes things easier now.

It might take 6 months or even a year to get there, but things are certainly moving in that direction. My state is set to slowly phase-in services starting May 4th. Healthcare is at the top of this list. Treading lightly will be key to our success....
