A Morning
Ride to Work

Biking to work is one of the highlights of my daily routine. I've been doing it for over 9 years and in that time, commuting on two wheels has become part of who I am.

Throughout those 9 years many things changed from the bike I rode to the gear I wore and the routes I took. What stayed constant was my fascination with riding a bicycle whether it rained, snowed or it was hot beyond comfort.

Last week was National Bike to Work Day and I wanted to do something to celebrate that day. I recorded stats from the moment I got on my bike to the time I arrived to my office. This snapshot of my morning commute is a good reminder of what happens every day I bike to work and why I love doing it.
