Good Job on your first commute, and on such a cold day too!!
I don't remember noticing as many things as you did on my first commute. I was too busy concentrating on my ragged breathing. I loved your comment about the lady eating McDonalds in the car. I'll still do that!

A pleasure to read, OTG
Glad you enjoyed it so much
I find riding to work helps me focus for the day, grounds me, and puts me in a good mood
Something about being in touch with the elements and travelling with ALL your senses
Happy commuting
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

Great job, great observations. Not every commute will feel as good, but in the end you know you accomplished something from the minute you start your ride. There is something positive about that, to start your day with an accomplishment few others can brag about

Great job, Susie. How was the commute home?
Have you put the Brooks on your other bike yet? I hope it works out for you better than it did for me!
