I commuted on my new commuter bike to a meeting in the next town. 30 mile round trip, but 2000 feet of climbing with it all in the middle. I was thrilled to have really low gears. Even with the 100 degree return trip, life is good!

And let me post my bike, just because I finally managed to get the fenders on around the disc brakes and I am darn proud of my non-mechanical self.
