My goal for this year was to commute at least once in every month of 2012, I got my first ride of the year in yesterday and it was 100% miserable. I set up an old mountain bike with my lights and rack, didn't test drive it at all. The way to work was very slow, but not terrible. The way home however was a nightmare, my cell phone was dead and I realized less than a mile out that my rear axle was bent and the tire was rubbing on the frame. I rode the rest of the way averaging 5.4 mph over the whole ride.

Heres hoping February is kinder to me. I'm going to change back to my summer commuter and start logging some miles. I want to double what I did last year and reach 2000 in 2012.
