After swampbutt-like conditions, the heat wave finally broke, so I took my maiden commute to work. Crusing along the bike path on Lake Michigan, sun reflecting off the water, cool breeze in my face--it was pure pleasure compared to the mosh pit of the subway. After a shower arrived at work fresh and energized. I

Just wanted to thank the members, whose tips I used to help make the ride better: rolling up my clothing for work, checking out a map of the area first for the best route, and a bunch of others. Also, for everyone's enthusiasm and encouragement with commuting.

Glad to hear your maiden voyage was a memorable one. Welcome to commuting!
