I love commuting to work on my bike
Well, once again, and this time sooner than ever, I’ve upped my workout level to incorperate commuting to work on my bicycle. I have a new bike this year, a Specialized Tarmac. (gonna post pics soon) But I am even more excited about saving gas money, enjoying my commute, and getting a grinding workout before and after work. In addition to anything else I do after I get home. I am a bit concerned about getting my new bike all dirty when it rains around here since I do live in Washington, and it’s a little nice for a commuter bike, but hey, it sure is nice to ride! People think I’m weird because I like riding the 18 miles each way, with substantial hills. But I think they are weird, because they sit in Seattle traffic. Or in my case, Hwy 9!

Good for you! I, too, have recently taken up bike riding. In my case, I’m planning to do a 70 mile, one-day event to benefit the American Diabetes Association. I’ve been casting around, trying to find ways to commute to work on my bike, but so far, no luck. I won’t give up, though. There is no try; there is only do, or do not. (Sorry, Yoda)
