+1 and +1 Before we move to the current house it was 18 miles to work, man I miss that place. Now it's 8 miles and I have a company car so the bike stays home. Really sucks.

Section 8 iam just southwest of you around mansfield ohio and dam the fog has been kicking up.
I ride almost everyday except when heavy rain or snow on the roads. My round trip to work is 70 miles so its a nice ride and i have several different ways i can take from super slab to back road twisties depending on time i have that day. It has helped putting 40,000 on my bike in two years as most of my trips to work and home seem to end up over 100 miles lol. Wife sometimes ask why you leaving at 9am if you don't have to be to work until 2pm dam i got to go to the ohio river and then to work lol.

I ride to work it's a great free therapy session. I do cage it if it's really bad weather since I don't relish riding in the rain anymore.
Cold is ok, have a suit for that. In my part of the world that usually means I ride at least 10 months out of the year sometimes a little less.
