My first Trekfeast

After months of "meaning to" and procrastination, I actually road my bicycle 8 miles from my house to the train station.  I'm now sitting on the train happily typing away on my keyboard instead of staring at the windshield trying to not fall asleep.  I work about 50 minutes away from my house, so the commute is brutal.  At least I do go the opposite way as the majority of traffic, but I still feel like I waste two hours a day.  Now I can read, type, work, knit, all sorts of stuff that I was having trouble fitting into my schedule with that commute.  Not to mention that it gets in some nice aerobic exercise daily.  I should have done this earlier.  I feel great, so damn alert.  It's funny how our brains trick us into thinking exercise is a chore and one that it would like to keep at the bottom of the list, because when you do get in some good exercise your brain and your body are all, "that was great, let's do it all the time."  

So, anyway, I am going to try to rely in peddle power and public transit when ever possible until it's too damn cold to ride my bike.  and the I'll try to rely in sole power and public transit.

Okay, I'm done being self-righteous...
