Congrats on your ride but you need to post this type of info in advance (the fact that it was Ride to Work Day)...not that I would have done it -- can't ride the bike from the bedroom to the kitchen nook where I sign into work from!

Of course, the ride helped her forget about it for awhile. And if I do have to go to the work site, I do ride - best part about going to work! 25 miles which only takes an hour!

Oh I know about the "out of work" stuff. Been there this year too. Good luck.

Maybe 25 miles one way, but think of that as less than a gallon of gas per day too. Right? With my current "position" Shocked

I can drive to work for 2 months on one tank.

It was great in the morning at 76F but at 99F on the way home, it was a little warmer. I think a cooling vest just may be a good idea after all.
