You guys are so sweet! Now if you just worked with me, lol!

Well, with all the downs, there are a lot of ups to my commute. I do have access to the freebie gym with a full shower, shampoo and soap (icky soap, I need to bring my own) and towels and a hair-dryer. For the next couple of weeks, I have access to a drawer at work to put some stuff in (tried just leaving my stuff in the freebie locker room, got a what's-what from the management). I will lay my clothes out to dry all day around my desk because while my co-workers think I'm nuts, they tell me they can't do what I'm doing, so I get a little respect.

We have a guy transferring from Seattle to our office and he's got an "in" so he confiscated an empty cubicle to put his bike in. He offered to let me put mine next to his, so I just have a month or so to get through. (although we have to put down cardboard on the floor so we don't get the carpet dirty...WHATEVER).

I'll probably be doing Tues-Thurs commuting. Kind of a bummer I can't do more right now, but I need to condition myself. So...it's Saturday hard/pleasure rides, Sunday rest, Monday riding around the track (my BF has taken up racing, but I can ride around it for an hour before...my one chance at a smooth flat fast ride!). Tues commute, Weds riding w/my honey, Thurs commute, Friday rest up for Sat. How's that for planning?

See my post about my new bike, too! Going out today for it's virgin ride
