No kiddin, Bluefish. Today was awesome. And it's shaping up to be another beautiful day in paradise. The ride home will be warm, but that's the more down-hill side of the trip for me. [Only 350 ft of climbing, compared to 680 on the way in..]

Today was my first ride with my first wicking t-shirt, bought at Target over the weekend. I definitely "get it" now. I was positively dry when I got to work [other than my head. I think I need a haircut].

Oh, and I need to put my rack and panniers on, if I can stay away from Mountain Biking long enough to make it worth the effort. The backpack is now my weak link.

Double oh.. Today was the first day [of my three days of commuting] that I was able to ride the whole 7.5 miles without a single break. Normally I need two breaks when I'm dealing with the hills, but not today!
