Nice ride this morning, around 48-50 F, so I wore my jacket. I took the newly-completed road connector near my house, which cuts 1/2 mile and nearly 3 minutes off my commute distance and time. I've been waiting on that road to be connected for over a decade now. It will also cut the distance to get to my son's school from as much 3 miles down to 1 mile, and should also greatly reduce through traffic going through the city park next to my neighborhood.
