Tuesday commuting thoughts

So I'm sitting here at work wearing my Adidas shoes with the Shimano cleats in them. Bike rests behind me. All I can think about is getting on the bike and riding. What happens at work in the meantime pales in comparison to the commute. For me, I think this is the tipping point where bicycle commuting becomes "easy". I never get that feeling with a car. :-)

In other news, there's a chance that whoever fitted me for my bike fit me with a frame too small for me. My seatpost is already raised past the "safe" point and my feet hit the wheels when turning the handlebars more than a little bit. I'm 5'11" and ride a 15.5" Marin San Anselmo. I have right at about 2 inches of clearance (guestimate) when standing over the top tube. May need to get another shop's opinion.

Did I say all I want to do go out and ride?
