First day of my longer commute to my fancy new office building. My morning commute increased from about 10 to 14 miles and took about 15 minutes longer, but it was a nice change of pace today because the weather was perfect. Yesterday I had to drive so I could bring items into my new office, so I walked 4 miles at lunch for exercise. Our new building is incredible -- all "green" LEED certified with numerous energy and water conservation features -- but encouraging greener transportation options was a bit of an afterthought. They haven't finished installing bike racks, but won't let us bring our bikes into the building, so I had to park a block away. I always kept my bike inside my office at my old building, so I am a bit paranoid about leaving my bike outside and invested in an expensive Kryptonite lock and cable. Hopefully it will perform as advertised.
