A morning ride

Ah.. Head clear, smooth pavement, no traffic. I biked to work this morning. It took me all of about 10 minutes. I got up early, showered and got ready for my first commuter ride here in the Bay area.

It's amazing how refreshed you can feel after a quick workout in the morning! Tippett is two miles from my home, and I took two side streets to get to there. I think the only thing that slowed be down were the stop signs! It was a little brisk this morning, but the sun was shining brightly onto my left side, and everything went smooth. I will have to get a commuter bike map to figure out the best streets to go down without hitting a stop sign at every intersection. That would cut off my commute by a minute or two! I'm quite glad to not have to drive to work everyday now. It opens up a whole lot of options, and I will definitely be saving a little on gas! At least a whole gallon a week.
