This morning was the first morning in a while that I've felt like the Baltimore roads and drivers are truly in harmony. Ran into a guy riding a dutch style cargo bike with his kids in the wheelbarrow part, which pretty much made my day.

not sure how my body will like commuting over 50 miles a day, but im gonna give it a try and drive on the days when i feel like i need a break
safe riding!
Glad to see so many other Baltimore guys here this Spring. Honestly, I've found that there are a lot of routes through SE Baltimore that aren't as crime-ridden as I was led to believe. I often ride out Washington Blvd myself. 3 hours a day for the commute seems pretty rough, though!
