Sure, I'd be hard-pressed to find a more pleasant bike commute anywhere. Like [MENTION=79399]InTheRain[/MENTION], "Six of those miles are on a very lightly used MUP that, for a portion of the ride, goes through a dense forest along a trickle of a stream" is a good description and while I do see some of the weather extremes, deep down I enjoy the variety.

It's not entirely due to fortune though, since I chose my residence based in part on the commute.
