This is my first time back on BF in a long time--I was burned out and stuff. I am happy to report that I now have a new job and consequently a new commute route. This has re-energized me physically and emotionally. I've been doing the new commute for a week now and I like it.

The previous commute was about 4.5 miles; the new one is 5.1 (according to my car), with much less traffic, better roads, fewer lights and fewer hills.

However, the bike rack here (which is the cheapest bike rack I've ever seen) is outdoors. For those here who have to park their bikes outside, what do y'all do when it rains? It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow.

It's good to be back!
