That bike looks awesome. Wish I didn't live on a big hill!
I commuted on my Guru with the pannier for the first time since April. I think I rode the bike once (a real ride, not a commute) once in May, so she's been lonely. I dusted her off last night and switched my front light over. This morning, I got a text from my boss, saying she was home with a bad case of poison ivy, so we couldn't meet for our weekly meeting; I didn't have to be at work until 11, but I actually left at 9:45, as it was getting hot and quite humid. To make myself go slowly, I wore commuter shorts and jersey, so I didn't sweat too much.
The ride home was lovely, at 7 PM. Cooler (79) and breezy.
Going to do a "dark ride," at 5:15 tomorrow morning. Left the Guru out on the front step, sans pannier, of course.
