Wow, I'm feeling very impressed with the hardcore commuters on this list who are riding in despite cold winter conditions. Feeling a bit guilty on my end for letting a little California "chill" and "rain" deter me these last few months-- I'm getting so soft (used to commute year round in Boston)! In any event, I am trying to get back to 3-4 times a week, and had an amaing ride in on Friday that reminded me of why I really really love riding in. I had a smile on my face much of the day! I put up some pics on my blog, check it out: http://nadiamac.blogspot.com/2013/03/glorious.html
