UPDATE-a-rooney:
On Tuesday (Aug 12), I completed my second commute to work. I took a slightly different route in which was only 6 miles to work (vs. the 7) to shave some time off as the sun does not seem to be getting up as early as it was a couple of weeks ago (need lights). However, I took a different route back so I could drop off my Hardrock Sport for its 30-day tune up at my LBS...distance was 10 miles, oh yeah!
And I am poised to commute tomorrow as I staged work clothes this morning for the next commute and the weather looks to be very promising in the greater metropolitan area of Lafayette, Indiana
