It was a beautiful ride this morning. Temp was about 8°C, no wind and clear skies.
I stopped being lazy and took the boy to daycare. It only adds 9 km to my commute and the route between daycare and work is crummy roads, bumpy, pot holes, no signals and uphill both ways. But me and my son love it and we still pass almost everyone, though we do not catch as many people as I do on my own. I have to work on that.
The addition of nearly 50 pounds of son and seat doubles the bikes weight which was a bit of a beast at the start this morning, but it gets much easier after the drop off!
19 km door to door, one hour in traffic. I can not really do it much faster in the car. The trip home should be faster than the car also!
I can not wait to meander home, maybe we'll have a picnic at the beach for dinner!
