Bikes: 2009 Trek 520

+1C with a light headwind. Its the second day back on the touring bike, and this morning was my first "workout" level commute in quite some time. The ride took 41 minutes, which is about 8 minutes faster than what I was typically doing on the mountain bike. Tuesday was a bit of a struggle as my legs were readjusting to this bike. Its exactly a month until my first 200km brevet, so I need to start doing some longer rides. Sunday is supposed to be +19, so I might ride to Moose Jaw and back if its not too windy.

The downside of taking the touring bike is that its new enough that I feel obligated to clean off the chain every day that I encounter wet roads.
