WooHoo, I start Monday at my new job, finally! Im so in debt from my surgery, I cant wait to get back to work! The job is just over 20 miles away, and I have already found the perfect bike route, it will bike thru 12 miles of farm land, just over a mile next to the lake, a few miles of urban housing, and just a few miles in the cities. I doubt I will start riding for a few more months however, im still working on getting my legs back :)
My boss told me that I could put my bike in her office, I also called the local health club that's just down the road from work, they told me that with a membership ($29 a month) I could use there showers... So I will probably sign up for the health club, as I need to work on my upper body anyhow, looks like the perfect commute so far :D

Well Joe you deserve some time off (from the site), you've been working pretty hard at it.
I know what you mean about the weather, ours has been off and on here, too. We havn't gotten any more snow for a while, but they keep on forcasting it, so you never know what you'll run into. I havn't actually commuted to work yet this year, although I've gone past my workplace a few times on my regular rides, just because of that. :cry:
But rumor has it that summer really IS coming!
:D
