My first "full week" of commuting
 
I rode 4 out of 5 days this week - had a routine Dr's appt on Tuesday so seized the opportunity to bring in fresh clothes and bring home old ones. Four days was my goal for the week (I have been riding two or three days the last couple weeks but travel for work and having errands involving bulky stuff have kept me from doing four days until now) and I'm proud to say that I put 77 commuting miles on my bike instead of my car, enjoyed the weather even when it was pouring buckets or 90 degrees, and feel better about getting up to go to work since the bike ride gives me something to look forward to. I can't wait to shoot for 5/5!

Congrats dude.

77 miles... that's around $10 in gas saved :)

If you do 4 days a week year round that's $520 saved :)

...

I'm working up to my bike commute. Currently 19miles each way... so 190 miles a week.

Full week here, too. Five for five. 14 miles roundtrip. It's a nice feeling having avoided the subway for a full week ;)
