Hi Scorch:
WOW! I am inspired!
I can barely do five miles. I just hate the exhausted feeling when I arrive at work. How are you not exhausted?
When I arrive at work I feel like I have been beat up. I also hate biking at night.
So I applaud you for doing 50 miles one way. You know, it is not nice to say but dealing with the cars turns me off. I love biking but I simply detest the traffic. I dont know what to do about dreading traffic.
What kinda bike do you have?
