First commute today. Its wasn't a real commute since I was only going to school to drop some stuff off at the office, but I wanted to see how long it took. So a solid 12 miles later I feel refreshed and ready for a nice evening.

I've been reading in this forum how to ride in traffic and I think I got the basics. I had to take the left turn lane sometimes, but no cars gave me trouble. I did almost get hit by someone leaving the parking lot to the local quikstop (I was in the right lane bike path) but I slammed on the brakes and stared him down and he let me go.

All in all I'd say I enjoyed it and I can't wait to commute to school every day this semester.

On another note, I see bike shorts in my near future.
