Biking to work...

Well I finally did it this morning. For those of you who know, I've been saying that I would start biking to work again for quite some time. Of course, searching for a new home, colds, report cards and a hundred other things have all been ready excuses. Well no more!

This mornning I put on my earphones, powered up my mp3 player, strapped on my helmet and off I went. And thats when it hit me... the problem with biking to work...

Hills.

From where I live to where I work is constant hills. And not just one or two short steep hills either, but the worst kind, the long gradual ones that look flat when you're in a car. People speeding by don't understand why your taking so long, but the moment peddling stops you come to a complete stop! AAARRGG!

Well I won't let it bother me. It takes me 20mins in a car and only 40 mins by bike so I think that's time well spent.

Oh and I'd like to get a new seat cause the one I have is hard to squeeze into, the straps chafe, and I can't see over Bless's head when she stands up to peddle.

Tomorrow we'll see if she can get me here in 35mins!!!
