I started working at a bike shop in the next town over towards the end of fall last year, and began commuting. It's right along my "usual" short training ride route, which is handy

This summer I'm working there again, and my rule is that the ONLY time I am allowed to drive is if I have my MTB in my car-- because that means that I am either coming from or heading to a trail ride

I thought I was pretty clever until my friend pointed out last night that we have wicked thunderstorms here during the summer (which I love... just not while on my bike)... we'll see how I get around that

Other than the commute T/T/F, I do 2 longer rides (or at least more "structured" ones) before class M/W, a trail ride after class W, and trail rides S/S. This is just my summer plan, BTW ... in normal school-time I ride maybe 3 days during the week, and race Saturdays. Luv those rollers in the winter!
