I rode today from Farmington Hills Michigan to Downtown Detroit (just over 20 miles).
It took 1 hr 15 mins.
This was my first time riding this route and then actually going to work after cleaning up and changing into my work clothes in the bathroom (no shower facilities).
It worked out well.
My new pannier bag worked great, but it would have been better if I had two to balance out the load and the bike.
My rolled dress shirt and dress slacks unfolded without being wrinkled after a few minutes of wear.
Will probably do it again today or Thursday.
