Commuting by bicycle!

OK please rest assured that I am in no way prideful or bragging about the fact that I biked to work today. I live 5 miles from work and get to wear exercise clothes and a ponytail, so if anyone SHOULD be biking to work regularly it is me!

However, I am just too much of a sissy to bike to work if its below 50, raining or super windy. And I make no apologies for that.... just not fun!

With that said...I had an awesome time biking to work this morning! The sun was shinning, blossom and flowers were blooming and I felt so energized and happy when I arrived at work! The best part is I have my bike here so I can take a nice little ride up on the palouse of Spokane's south hill before I head home tonight(and riding home is ALL downhill)!

I am setting a goal today to ride my bike to work AT LEAST 1x/week. This may be challenging through May and June when weather is still iffy.... but I should easily average more than that once summer gets into full swing through July and August. I am happy to think about the extra exercise, gas saved, and positive impact on the environment!

So I am sharing the commitment with all of you so you can help hold me accountable!! How many other bike commuters are out there in blog land??
