Lovely weather and 3 of us lined up on Williamsburg to cross over Old Dominion...bike commuter traffic!

Starting to get dark, slightly muggy, foggy. Surprisingly, saw 7 other cyclists. Dropped a couple. Last night, a pair of roadies took umbrage at me bombing past them at the beginning of the MUP, they caught me after about a half mile.

Great!
I saw a buddy of mine riding this morning too.
The weater was just right.

First Commute in six months. Felt great. I forgot how good I feel after riding in the morning. Weather was perfect just cool enought not to get hot. Also got to use my new NR cherry bomb tail light!

Rode about 3km, then decided I'd like to try my seat a little higher. Stripped the seat post bolt and did the ride of shame back home to find a spare bolt. Couldn't find one, and did the drive of shame to work.

On the plus side, I moved last week and my commute went from 14km round trip, to 33km round trip, and I'm loving the extra bike time.

Humidity dropped made for a nice ride in and not a bad ride home either. Tomorrow is suppose to be the same.. Maybe I'll ride my hipster wanna be.

This morning was slightly cool and very low humidity. It was a great ride.

The afternoon was over 100 (not sure by how much), but at least the humidity didn't break 70% (I think).

Easy ride in and a beautiful morning. Yesterday the Washington Post reported on a new Bike center at
the Union station. It will be a place to lock bikes up inside, with 150 spots, and 20 outside. Union Station is a big commuter stop in Washington. It has a subway link a couple stops from a major metro hub, and all the commter trains stop there as well. The center will house a changing room, personal lockers, a bike repair shop, and bike retail stores. It's a small step, but a good one, and they are planning to put more
of these centers at other metro stops.

Normal commute...nothing special.

I got to the office and a woman I work with brought a pound cake in for everyone though! Not a bad end to a 14 mi bike ride.

Another gorgeous morning.
My legs are a bit tired, but it's the good kind of tired.
I am looking forward to doing a longish Saturday ride on some different roads.
Lately I have been trying to slow down a little and just enjoy the ride more. It's real easy to get caught up in the routine of commuting and rushing around with traffic.
I got into bike commuting to enjoy my surroundings more so I am making a point to do just that.

I was so tempted to sleep in this morning and drive to work. But I got up and I'm sure glad that I rode. It was a beautiful morning with a pretty sunrise, clear skies, nice temperature in the low 70s and relatively low humidity. On top of that, nearly every traffic signal was green the entire way. I got to work in a great mood. Now, if the afternoon thunderstorms will just hold off ...

I was running late today.... pulled into the office right at 8:00 am, didn't get to my desk until 8:20. Anyway, there was the most awesome rainbow for most of my trip.

...and at the end I got rained on.

Are you kidding? In SWFW? It was partly cloudy without a hint of impending showers when I rode out at 6:30...

yesterday's ride home was fantastic. Hot with some AMAZING thunderstorms hugging the entire Wastch Range. It got pretty windy as I neared my house (at the base of the mountains).
Shortly after I got home, it rained for the first time since mid-June, even if briefly. The smell was intoxicating.

Pretty normal ride in this morning.

Friday, Sunny....not too hot yet, commuting in what I will wear to work Hawaiian shirt and shorts.

Life is good

Cloudy and cool. The perfect riding weather. Was told to "get on the sidewalk" by a guy in a pickup truck. Haven't heard that one in about a week...

Last commute for a while. Got laid off, today.

Nice ride in. Little warm on the way home but not bad for August in GA.

While riding to work I stopped to go tothe ATM machine. Some guy (who needs to ride, walk or run on a daily basis) told me I need to ride the sidewalk. He said it was safer. I told him that was not true. He became angry and insisted that I ride the sidewalk. I asked him "why are we talking? He walked off.

So, did you miss the gully-washer at lunchtime, too? I started feeling the raindrops just after crossing north over I-20 on South just after passing through your hood.

When confronted with this kind of logic I simply ask, "Are you a Cop?"

"Then mind your own affairs."

[/B]How far do you commute?

That sucks. Hope you find work soon.

Today, I rode my bike for the first time this week. Nice, sunny weather. The Cape Cod tourist season is at a boiling point- there were cars everywhere! Got to the parking lot and realized I forgot my cellphone... Oh, well! Anyway, I sailed through the workday and nothing got me down... 23 more days before Labor Day and the Mass Exodus from the Cape... The light at the end of the tunnel is visible!

well got up late for work today and thought i would n eed to use car, but with new bike being so much faster than my hybrid which was stolen a few days ago, i thought i would try to race to work on my 25 year old fuji 12 speed. well i made it with time to spare, boy this "new" bike is very fast. so much less effort to ride fast compared to the hybrid i had.
weather was humid and warm but we have had a mild summer here on long island this year and the hottest days are probably behind us. mid august already, boy this summer flew by.
