I live in austin, so it's still t-shirt weather here (really nice). I've LOVED riding in - it's a great feeling pulling up to the office with a huge sense of accomplishment.
On Tuesday I took the bus home because it was dark and I don't know how comfortable I am with that, but today I'm hoping to leave before it's too late.
Congrats!! Pat yourself on the back twice!
Cool & dark again this am. This afternoon was 40'sF breezy (headwind) & gray, actually had to "dress up" with the warm stff for the ride home. Soon I'll have to hang it up for lack of warm riding clothes for the winter.
