I'm back to riding every day after spending the winter riding the bus. I had to stop riding because I was getting too pissed off at the a$$hole drivers parking in the bike lane. I was stopping to report at least one each way every single day. I was about to fill my handlebar bag with rocks and start throwing them at cars.

But that bus ride is not great. The traffic is terrible. If you are in Seattle, you know the phrase "Mercer Mess." On a bike I get home faster and I am a slow rider. The 4.5 mile journey was averaging 45 minutes and on some really bad days it was an hour and a half.

I honestly can't imagine sitting in that mess in a car every day.
