My first commute in or nay?

[perplexed]

Well I normally leave at 7.30am in the car, arriving around 7.45am for an 8am start.

Was unsure if I should leave at 7am or 7.15am but decided the later of the two (I had warned them I might be late or not turn up at all!!).

I eventually left at 7.13am and arrived at 7.35am, so 23 mins. Surprised at that and very pleased. I feel fine and the bike is so much better with the new tyres (and the nice downhill bits helped of course!!).

One (nasty) leg to go!!

Excellent news, glad it went well!

Made it home without stopping, although the hill was a struggle I just about made it. Nothing like pushing yourself!

It took me 30 mins to get home so with the one big hill and two steady climbs and a bit of a headwind and extra 7 mins seems ok.

I've got to take the car tomorrow and am on holiday thursday and friday but will make sure I get out during that time and then keep the commute up next week for at least 3 days

Thanks for the encouragement peeps!

A word to the wise, it doesn't seem to get easier, it just get faster...
