Yippee- I get to start commuting again tomorrow after having the summer off. I teach, and truthfully, the getting to commute again is the only thing that takes the sting out of having to go back to work in those first weeks. I LOVE my job, but I equally love my semi-retirement all summer... except for missing my commute so much.
Because this summer has been so unbelievably hot and unbearable, I haven't ridden any bike (commuter, tri, road) since May when I last commuted (oh wait- excpet for a few times I mountain biked this summer). I'm looking forward to rubber meeting the road again!
