Pika!!!
That's awesome. I'm soooooooo proud of you. I had about the same commute in Edmonton. Minus the hills of course. I loved it. I got so addicted to my morning commute that I just kept doing it, even in the middle of winter when it was minus 15 to 20 Celcius. It got too hard to kept my eyewear fog free below minus 20.
Congratulations.

Good for you! The first commute is always the hardest.
With a short commute like that, you might be looking for a longer route home. It sounds like it wouldn't take much more time.Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

Day two:)
Thanks for all the words of encouragement
You gals are great
I'm sooo glad some of you mentioned taking a longer route home- laughed at myself because that NEVER occurred to me- though it makes perfect sense
so 2 for 2 have 1 more real work day this week so that will make a hatrick
Again ladies thanks for the encouragement

Hey, congrats on taking that plunge!
Yeah...the first ride is always the hardest.
With better weather and more light approaching, it should be easier to make it part of your routine.

Good habit Well done
I haven't had a chance to commute much this year... and its almost winter, but my partner has just bought me some nice warm booties, so I guess I have no excuse when the winter commute opportunities arise.
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".
