Commuted for the first time today! To be honest it was pretty noneventful - I'd already done the route two times in a row on my last long ride. Still, I'm pumped - I got a good work out, I got to work in once piece, and in less time than I normally do. In fact, instead of going directly to work I took a lengthy detour - and still made it in less time!

I think the only annoying part was the new bike flash light I'd affixed to my bike - it fell off as soon as I started riding. I thought maybe it was a fluke, so I put it on again and again it fell off and this time I ran over it with my back tire! I just stuffed the thing into my bag and will deal with it later. Tape I guess? Either the the thing is broken or I'm missing something obvious. But other than that hiccup - I'm a commuter convert!
