i busted a rail on my saddle on my commuter bike during my ride home from work yesterday, and with the forecast for absolute stunning weather here in chicago today, i just grabbed my backpack and hopped on my road bike this morning instead of fussing with a saddle swap on my commuter bike (i'll get to that this weekend).

it had been a good long while since i had gotten out on my road bike (i have a two year old and 6 month old at home, so recreational rides have been pretty much nonexistent this summer), and man oh man was it fun! it's impossible to ride my road bike slow, it just wants to fly. even when it's standing perfectly still, it feels like it's going forward somehow. i really should remember to ride it more often, so much fun!
