Race is On

Riding my bike home from work tonight. The Bridge I'd normally go across in the Car is closed for repairs, so Traffic is a nightmare. I'm betting I can make the 20 miles home certainly in less time than in the backed up traffic, and probably less time than my normal commute. Although with transaction time (i.e. changing) it could be tight.

Kinda looking forward to passing everyone stuck in the Traffic.

Made it right at an hour. Slightly slower than the normal commute, but faster than the construction delayed traffic, and a heck of a lot more fun thansitting in traffic.
