Clear morning, about 45F at home and 66F at work. I'm trying to turn over a new leaf and stop driving to work. Used to have a great 12 mile one way commute, but we moved and I'm now about 25 miles one way. However, I can cut 10 miles off that using the bike/train/bike method, giving me 30 miles a day. This makes for a bit of a long day, more time-wise than mileage-wise, and also I'm not really saving any money because the train is not cheap. What I spend for the train, I'll save on gas/car maintenance, and moreover on sanity/mental peace not being on the freeway.

Today is day 3 of returning to the bike commute, first time in almost 2 years I've bike commuted 3 days in a row. I'm freakin' hungry! Legs have just the right amount of soreness.
