past two morning commutes have been different... they ground down a road that I usually take to work but not home so I have ridden my "to home" route in reverse. So now it has been my "to work" route the past couple of days. it is a bit nerve wracking going the opposite way that I am used to but it has worked. It is a bit more time out in the country vs city riding. I do hope they hurry up and finish paving the road. when it is done it will be great. (smooth and steep enough hill that I consistently hit 30+ going down it.) <- which is one reason why I have avoided don't want to do ride down the grooved road.
