So I found this good article about riding your bike on the road in traffic. It's a quick read but it's good stuff, especially if you're biking in Atlanta.
Also, I built a "bike light" (I use the quotations because its about twice as big and half as bright as it should be to be useful) with my Arduino. It's got 3 modes: All On, Blink, and Wave. There's even a button to advance through the modes, so yeah, who's cool now?
Someone has also come out with a cheap touchscreen/oled kit to use with the board so I might have to come up with a project to use one of those. If your interested in getting started with electronics or micro controllers as a hobby, I'd definitely go with an Arduino over jumping straight into something like a PIC. There's tons of tutorials and cool projects you can do for not too expensive.
I've definitly been nerding out today.
