Finally got off my lazy butt and started commuting to work. My rides pretty quick, about 15 minutes depending on how lazy I am. It does have a couple good hills though.

Here's my converted road bike. I put an eco-rack on it and my sunlite traveler panniers. I have been having issues with keeping the panniers out of the back wheel. I think I solved it with cardboard in the bottom, but we'll see. Supposedly the eco-rack acts as a sudo fender, so I hope I don't need a rear fender. I got a grunge board for the front in the event I have bad weather. Haven't fitted it though. I also added the adjustable water bottle cage to hold my coffee mug.

I want to go to clipless pedals eventually, or at least power grips. I have to figure out how to do that with combat boots though, since I'm in uniform (army) more often then not.
