So far, I rode a whole 7 miles to Trader Joe's and back, as I had my consultation group with my grad school buddies today. Put the pannier on the new bike when I got home, which of course, is a whole new experience, but basically, I get to go even slower with a load in there. We used our new lights (me for the second time) and even though it wasn't quite dark out when we got home, it's a really great light.
Tomorrow, it's supposed to be 60 and I plan on riding my Kuota at least 30 miles, maybe more.
