Last commutes of the Spring semester today and they awesome.

63-68F and overcast with mainly crosswinds from the S @ 7-13mph for the ride in this morning. Hit a new commuting top speed of 42.1mph on the 0.6 mile hill on Rt 20. Normally I'm at 35-38mph on that hill, but I think the new chainring helped with the higher speed.

63F with rain (heavy at times) and mainly light to no headwinds from the E @ 0-4mph for the ride home this evening. Even though I had slight headwinds at time, I had a very fast ride home. I'll have to check, but I do believe this was the fastest ride home this semester. Also got completely soaked, but I had a blast.

Now that I'm down with commuting for about a month till Summer classes start, I can start doing long rec/fitness rides.
