It looks like I won't be able to commute by bicycle any more save for the days and evenings I ride down to the co-op to volunteer and that is only a bi-weekly affair.

I will be riding the girls back and forth to school when the weather improves so that will be nice and that's a 14 km round trip... I will need to do that twice a day and am hoping we have a nice spring season of riding.

But for now my commuting days are pretty much over as rather than the commute being too far to do by bike (don't know if there is such a thing) it is because I reduced my commute from 2km to 30 steps from my back door.

I don't expect to see any other commuters on my new route and some days may need to wear a sweater and put on the yaktrax if things are icy... on the bright side there will be no sidewalk ninjas.





And when I open that green door I get to deal with this...







I live on a bike route so figure the shop re-location was a good idea.
