Work commute

I finished the year off right by commuting to work one more time, today. It was 41 degrees when I got up. Weather radar didn’t show anything too close, so I stepped outside to check for drizzle or mist. It was mostly cloudy, but the blue moon was trying to shine through an opening in the clouds, and there was no mist or drizzle.

I got off work at noon, and had a nice tailwind coming home. It was only half an hour after I got home when the north wind really picked up, the temperature started dropping, and the cold rain started. I was glad it waited until then. It was definitely a bit too chilly to be outside installing a north facing storm door (ask me how I know that).

I ended up with 170 rides this year, 7,441 miles. 25 of those rides were commuting to work. I’ve been surprised at just how much I enjoy riding to work. I plan on doing it more often this coming year.

Commute route.
