My commutes this week have been great. I ride 3 days a week now and drive two so I can take care of the odds and ends. But this week I've extended my morning ride so I can go along lake Champlain. At 5 am it is beautiful. Get to watch the sun rise, catch all those early bugs in my teeth. It extends my ride another 3 miles but that's ok as I'm also training for a Tinman. So it's now 20 miles each way. I honestly can't say that I'm getting any faster, but it really is a great way to spend part of my day. And in this part of NY, the traffic is really minimal. The problem is for me, the season is just too short. Anyway, good/safe commutes to all.
