I do ride to work when I can. It's only 14 miles each way from here to the West Valley. Was tough to do over the summer because the afternoon ride home at 4:30 frequently had me on the bike with temps in excess of 100 degrees. I can only do a few days a week as I take our daughter to school on the days my wife works. Having to be at work at 7:30 means a 6:15-6:30 departure which is also tough now as it's dark. But, it's a good idea! May have to try a few more shots at this before the time change.
