Bikes: 1981 Katakura Silk Speedmaster, 2012 Fuji Feather, 2015 Bianchi Super Pista

Daily Dream- 20 months

Route: 7 Miles- One Way, 99 percent of it on a Commuter trail
Road conditions / surfaces: Well paved, minimal potholes.
Traffic: Only on the road for .5 miles, No bikes lane, poorly maintained road. So its kinda sketchy, but it lasts about 3 minutes
Environment: The other 6.5 miles is on a well paved trail that rides right along a creek
Hills: Very small up and down hills to go under major roadways and freeways. There is 5 underpasses total
Frequency: 5 Days a week
Departure time:….
Bike:2012 Fuji Feather, Fixed gear
Bike name:.…
Cargo: Mission workshop Vandal Backpack
Illumination (to see and be seen): Knog Blinders
Helmet / Mirror: Random Helmet, no Mirror.
Destination:
Parking: Indoor bike rack
Cleanup: Showers and locker room
Amenities: Got tons of food spots all around work, not so much in terms of a general store, but i have all of that stuff within a mile of my house as well. I typically over pack tools and tubes and such just in case i break down since all bike stores and general stores are multiple miles away from work.
Departure time: Depends on my mood, ranges from 5:30am to 7:30am
Alternative Transportation: I live in the middle of a few buddies commutes, So if i absolutely need to i can catch a ride without hassling anyone. I can also use Lightrail or an Uber($14) if i need to
