It was pretty nice having a brisk 70 mile ride into work this morning. My truck has been in the shop for since last Thursday so I have been on the bike every since. The temps have been in the mid-50s and low 60s on the rides into work. And then around 80 for my evening commute. I figure its not a bad way to break in the new bike. I picked up my bike a little over a month ago with 41 mile and have put on over 1000 in the last two weeks.

Glad you are enjoying your bike. Most of my miles are commuting. A lot more fun than working. Best part of the day.
I'm just listening to the radio - apparently there's been an accident on my route home, so I'll have to take the scenic route instead. The weather is lovely and I'm outta here in 30 minutes!
YEEEEEAH!!!

Got about a 50 mile round trip ride to work. Weather is in the crapper this week though. Lucky if I get to ride in once. Maybe tomorrow if I dodge the AM showers. Storms the next day and cold front moves in.
