The ride in today was perfect. Nice and cool, only got sweaty on the last mile of my 8 mile commute. TOday was my first bike commute in nearly a year and a half. I tried it a little in spring of 2005 and it was a b***h of a commute for me then. A physical a couple of months later revealed that I was anemic, and a massive gastrointestinal hemmorrhage a few months after that revealed why I was anemic. I've spent the last 11 months recuperating and finally felt safe trying again. I've also made some changes in child care arrangements that should make it easier for me to bike commute more often.

The ride home will be interesting to experience, as it's more uphill than the ride in. Shouldn't be too bad though.
