I have returned

After a couple of the most frustrating months of trying to get a new house and suffering while both of my bike (see sig) were rotting away in storage finally, today, I got to bike commute again. It's too short (1.8 miles) but the feeling of being back on the Speedster early in the morning is fantastic. I feel reborn.

Well, the too short part is easily fixed, just find some nice detour to work =). Sounds great that you are on the bike again!

Not so much a pleasant thing on Baltimore roads. I plan on more after work and weekend riding to make up the distance though.
