Here's what's happening this week, I rode the e-bike on Tuesday (total for the day, 14 mls) and today rode the REAL bike for the first time (total for the day will be 14 mls). WOW. it was not as hard or scary as I built it up to be. As I was explaining to V, because I've never ridden a road bike in traffic before, I was nervous about using signals, braking, *and* managing the clip/shoes with ease, without toppling over. It's like the pat your head/stomach thing. I think door-to-door the ride was about 40ish minutes, so longer than on the e-bike which was to be expected.
With the shower/change, I got to my desk at 8:25, not too bad.
I wish I'd stopped to take a morning pic or two, but I was focused on a lot of other, safer, things. Heh. Below, are two photos from the commute home last night, around South Lake Union, it was a loverly day for a bike ride.
Notes: I forgot to wear the brand spanking new bike shorts I found at Title Nine. But I think I'll be fine going home. Will try 'em and review 'em this weekend on our long ride. Destination Tk. Stay tuned. --Bee
