First Commute 2007

One family car in the shop prompted me to finally get out and make my first 2007 bike commute. I admit to being only a lukewarm commuter. It's so easy to take the path of least resistance.

Anyway, the ride in was nice, but nothing much to write about. By the afternoon the day was glorious and warm and the wind was, for once, blowing my way (west to east).

I stopped by my local shop, The Bicycle Escape, and said "Hi" to my friends there before tackling the hills on the east side of the Monocacy River valley

Slow and steady got me up the hills. I decided to hit a couple of side streets to add them to my 'Ridden' list.
