Commuting on it is fun! Way snappier and reliable than my usual commuter at college. Plus I don't get to go out and ride much, so this gives me an excuse to ride it at least 5 times a week.

I work in a garden center at a hardware store, so I don't have any drawers or anything where I can stash stuff. It sure would be nice though! We have a basket that we put our water bottles and the price tags that stays inside at night and is outside during the day, so I might stash clothes there and hope no one complains, haha. Fortunately (and unfortunately) my commute is about 1 1/2 miles straight to work. That is down a rather busy road though, so I'm starting to take back roads to both add-on, and avoid as much traffic as possible. There's a decent hill to climb behind my work too!



I don't know an awful lot about these era Cannondale's or their pricing. I can say the last one has integrated shifters (modern), so gear changes will be within easy reach, especially on a climb or sprint. I can say the white one is about the exact Cannondale I want to buy. I'd love to have one of those for commuting. The only thing I would really change about it is I wish it were red/white or black/white.
