Really not a commute but a ride to South Salinas to Attend a Dance Recital at Hartnell College. Weather was a bit cold but I warmed up pretty fast and took a favorite back route of mine to get to the main stretch that inevitably I would end up on en route to the college. It is a great route, there is a video on a part of it @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnvrRF3hsJo it makes for a great ride. Keeps life interesting and it follows those great farm back roads with some climb and a roughed up road but well worth it and a nice break from the high traffic areas that I would otherwise be travelling on.
