My first commute to work for 2013 today...and I feel Greatt!!!.. My Old school 10 speed steel Schwinn was desperate to hit the roads. It used to take me almost 50-60 minutes to get to work when I first started commuting last year an each time I got to work or returned home , I was almost dead and soo freaking exhausted. I better my time and endurance a few months later so before the cold weather arrived I went down to 35-40 minutes one way ...thats for roughly 8 miles each way if I take the same route, but sometimes going back home I take the long way to score a few more miles so ussually the round trip is about 18-19 miles. Well ...today I made it to work in 28 minutes and not even pushing it ,just at my comfort pace...yay!!...Its unbelievable!. I feel so happy!! . I just wish it stops raining here in Indy... I just can't afford to ride in the rain...I am just coming out from a bad cold. At least it is going to be sunny and dry for the next 3 days..hopefully!
