Another picture perfect day in NC, sunny with mild temperatures. I completed my first 5-day bike commute of the year, despite thinking on Monday that I might only be able to ride two days. I had to go out of town on business Tuesday and Wednesday, but biked to work with my travel gear in panniers, so I was able to ride to work on Tuesday morning and ride home on Wednesday afternoon. I also had planned to take Friday off for a weekend trip, but that got canceled, so I rode today after all. It's supposed to be a cold and rainy weekend here, so it's nice to be able to ride when the weather is favorable.
