It feels so good to have finally pulled off a week w/ 3 days f commuting in it. Plus, if all goes well this weekend I'll get in at least 5 days of riding in 7 days time. That will feel good going into my work imposed 5 day break from commuting. I'm off to a training in Reno Tuesday-Friday.

Congrats. It can be very addictive. I was 5 for 5 this week and I now get very cranky if I have to drive.

Keep up the good work.

Good for you!

Keep it up and soon you`ll be wondering why you have a car in the first place.

ug! i had just the opposite experience this week. I was only able to bike twice. One of the days I knew I had a large package being delivered to work (a vacuum cleaner), the other day I was working a reserve shift at my second job (which requires me to bring gear and a uniform with me), and the third day I drove I was driving some friends around.

I hated it... Because on that third day of driving I ran low on gas and had to fill up. $60 later.... at least it was the first time I had filled up with gas in 20+ days.
