Yesterday's commute was just about perfect, both ways Fastest time ever for that route, but only because I hit most of the lights on green ;-)

Today's ride fulfilled an objective -- I rode all the way from home to work for the first time (I usually ride to and from the Metro). Google Maps set the distance as 18 miles, but because of a couple of missed turns and some re-routing, the total was a hair under 22. I could probably bring the total down tonight on the way home, as I'm less likely to get misdirected, but I'll probably take a less traffic-laden route, as it is likely to be getting dark by the time I get to the end of the ride.

Definitely no speed record, but I felt pretty darn good when I got to my destination. I definitely need to work on my city riding and navigation skills, though :-) In addition to this being my longest ever commuting ride, it was my longest ever single bike ride.
