Back to Work
As much as I’ve enjoyed leisurely sitting around sipping coffee each morning on my recent vacation, I have to admit it was nice to get on the road early this morning for the first time in a couple of weeks. For all of you coming back from vacation today, have a great first day back and enjoy your ride!

So true! I was getting tired of sleeping late and hanging around my apartment too much. Have a great first day as well and thanks for keeping your amazing website alive and kicking!
Still foggy and cold here in the middle of California, and grateful for one more week of vacation.
I’m back in the office today too, but no bike commuting for me. My wife insisted I drive her to work everyday! :(
I was multi-modal on this freezing east coast day. Bike to bus for me.
I had an invigorating 20-something degree ride this morning. I thought my lungs were going to freeze. A little warmer this afternoon, thankfully. It’s nice to get back on my bike again after spending hours in cars driving to visit family.
Happy New Year!
First real serious day of slush-plowing for me; I’m certainly glad I decided to get a beater bike for winter. At least it was warmer than it’s been the past few days (only -8 C…before wind chill, that is).
Well, 15F, NW winds at 25 mph, and snow/slush; welcome back work. And thank you GT Peace 9r single speed.

While I was off, I was sick and couldn’t ride so I removed the zip ties and hemp twined my wald 137 basket to the front rack of my Raleigh One Way. All the way down both sides! A labor of love! when I’m well enough I’m going to shellac it too. Yes, it looks cool. Yes I know I’m anal.
-6F for the commute in. +1F for the commute home. Windchill was actually a factor on the way home. Only 15 – 20 minutes each way, but it was invigorating.
I have an unconventional schedule and worked through much of winter break – but today and tomorrow I have off, and so does my husband. An unusual work schedule can be tough, but then getting weekdays off all to yourself has many benefits.
Today is the start of my vacation. The kids are back at school and the husband is back to work. The apartment is mine!!!! (after 10 months of unemployment I have decided that I am now a full time housewife and am embracing it fully. This also means my primary commute is to the coffee shop on the way to pick up the youngest from preschool : )
