I done skipped the train!
Total Mono-Modal commute today. I left the house at 6:25 rather than 6:40. Arrived at work at 7:20 rather than 7:35.
Ony five minutes extra to ride a real non-folding road bike rather than my dahon? Awesome!
I'm even less tired after 16 miles o/w on my panasonic than I usually am after 3.5 + 1.5 miles o/w with the train/26" folder. Totally invigorated, even.
Not to mention the beach route and the just-past-full morning moon (had it in the sights of my old toy tasco last night), clear orange sunrise... ahh...
I'm a convert! Wonder if I can keep this up. I think that since the train station is east of me, while work is to the west, I'll make the call based on the weather and the wind speed/direction. Nice to have options.
