Yesterday and today were both great commuting days, The air was still and a bit cool at the start of my ride but felt great after a shot time in the saddle. Yesterday I took the hilly back roads through the country side, the traffic was very light and the sounds and smells of a summer morning were plentyful, it was the type of ride that makes commuting worth it. Today I took the highway, new pavement, more hills but not as steep, I took the panniers off the bike so I could move right along. It took me 44 minutes to go my 18.5 miles, It's going to be a long day at work waiting to ride home.
