That's a minute better than my best on my 17 mile commute. Well done!

We have a rare occurrence here in North Texas today: NO WIND! I'm lovin' it. Rain from the weekend, though, means the low water crossings are flooded so I have to take an alternate route. Yesterday morning I didn't have any trouble crossing but by the afternoon two crossings were flooded and I ended up riding several miles out of my way to get home. At least the weather was nice.
