I know this isn't the "how DIDN'T your commute go" forum but I didn't want to start a new thread for my not terribly interesting news. I rode 2 or 3 times a week for a month and was loving it--had even ridden to work every day, the last week.

Then the temps were hitting 115 in the afternoon and I sort of chickened out for a week.

Then I went away on vacation for a week.

The day I returned from vacation I broke my toe and I haven't been able to wear shoes since. It's feeling better enough that I could MAYBE pedal in flip-flops (still can't put a shoe on because it hurts!), but that seems like a recipe for disaster.

So I haven't commuted for three weeks, after only doing it for a month. I'm pissy. But, I'm still optimistic and looking forward to my toe not hurting so I can start up again!
