Talking Freedom

Ya know, even after the most F*@%ed' up day at work, when I walk out of that place and start the bike ....... it all just fades away when I ride back home. Sorry but I just had to post this!!

My commute is 11 miles and takes 7 min. with 1 traffic light. I ride to work for the same reason. I always have a smile as I pull out of the parking lot.

Even considered moving just to increase my commute.

I rode to work at 0530 this morning. Walked outside and it was still dark with just the moon lighting the road. The temperature was 70 and there were no bugs - perfect.

Riding in, all of the houses were still dark and there was almost no traffic on the road. I really felt at peace with the world. Too bad I had to pull in to the parking lot at work and stop, but it made the day more tolerable.

11 miles in 7 min? So you ride to work at over 100 mph?
