I have NOT been commuting for the last few weeks. The normal 'summer weather pattern' is in full swing here in Okeechobee, FL and that means pouring rain beginning around 4 pm every afternoon. That also means a very wet and unpleasant ride home most days. So, I have been getting up an hour early, and riding a 15.2 mile loop of surface streets and MUP each morning before I go to work. It's usually warm and the sun is just coming up as I get on the highway south of the house. The ride is short, and my time is limited, so I have been really pushing to see how fast I can make that loop. Today was a 18.4 average. Not bad for an old guy on a long wheel base recumbent...
