Temperature was 32 degrees this morning but felt great with running pants,a thermal undershirt, and hoodie. This was my second day commuting and yesterday's adventure was lengthened by a Google maps error.

The road I planned to take for the majority of the route dead ends at a wooded area and it wasn't shown on Google maps. So yesterday I rode around and had to take the busiest street in the city to work at, probably, the busiest time of day (8am). But it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and I've rode on that street before, just not at that time of day.

Today I decided to go through that wooded area and I found that there is actually a small path leading to some train tracks so I rode the path and carried my bike over the tracks and then rode out of the path on the other side and the road picks back up on the other side. So now my commute has about 100 yards of trail riding tacked on to it, which is pretty fun actually, and I don't have to ride on the super busy street anymore. Pretty interesting adventure and I discovered something new about the city I've lived in for years!

Fun times.
