Funny you said that about getting back into the routine. I missed my first opportunity of the season to commute to work on Long Island today, but I did come home and start preparing my bike (as if this weather is actually going to stick around for more than a couple of days). I'm amazed at how baffled I was when trying to come up with a mental checklist of everything I need.
Anyway, Saturday 4/14 is supposed to be another good day, so I hope to get on the bike and blow some crust out of my arteries before beginning the daily commute ONE of these days in April.
Have a safe season. If you are as disgusted as I am with the world right now, I hope the joy of commuting brings you and I a little bit of peace.
