For a year I have been keeping an eye on this thread, hoping one day I would be able to contribute to it. Well that day is finally here. My very first commute by bike was fantastic. I couldn't have been blessed with better weather. I can't wait for the ride home and I am kicking myself wondering what took me so long to get to this point.

There are so many bike commuters in my area now, it was really cool to greet each person this morning with a smile and a "good morning". I guess it is a good thing I have nothing unusual to report.
