Biking update

[chucklemagne]

I went out on my bike again today. Wore my new kilt. :) I managed to shave about 10 minutes off the round trip of about 20 miles this time. And I didn't stop for as long at the half-way point this time, only long enough have one of those energy gels. I had another on the way back at the point where it's all uphill, which helped a lot getting past

It sounds like you are getting into riding shape fast! You're inspiring me to try my hand at riding to work soon. Best of luck shaving off those last 10 minutes.

Make sure to map a safe route there and back I know biking to work got mark in shape fast but he took some dangerous ways and that made me worry a bit.

The route is mainly bikes only. There are a few places where you have to cross a street but for most of it I'm not riding with any motorized traffic. Albuquerque is pretty bike-friendly, and I understand they're working on making it more so. New bicycle bridge just opened up recently I hear.
I definitely encourage others to bike to work where possible. The price of gas these days, not to mention the impact on the environment. Plus which there's nothing sexier than a man in a kilt on a bicycle.
