commute...

i'll admit it, i'm a slacker about commuting by bike... i enjoy it - i've got a nice 6 mile ride through rock creek park - but it's hard for me to get over the inertia and get the ball rolling.

back in the fall i worked up to commuting a couple days a week, but the days were still long and the weather still fairly warm and when the clocks went back it wasn't as easy to do and fell back to the car.

now that the days are starting to get longer i'm trying to get back into the habit. i rode in yesterday, got to work early (though not as early as i'd have liked to) so that i could leave early and get in a good workout before heading home. need to remember to factor in the time it takes to change in and out of the bike gear though, as i was later leaving work than i'd planned and it was almost dark by the time i got home...
