I live only a mile from my office so I normally walk to work. I’m an avid cyclist, but always seemed too close to work to make biking “worth it” (weird I know). I gave it a shot today, being Bike to Work Day and whatnot, and I may end up doing it more often.
I hit the Ballston stop around 7:15, grabbed my shirt and some other swag, and set off for work. There was a decent crowd already, along with a dancing chick-fil-a cow, can’t beat that. Saw plenty of other commuters riding through Clarendon as I was locking my bike up outside my building.
Any other first time Bike to Work Day / Bike Commuters out there?

I made it home!!!
The first 8 miles were great – passing all the cars on the 14th St Bridge was good fun. Stopped by the airport to have a fight with the straps on my messenger bag.The last mile was a 99% uphill grade. I don’t know who put in all those hills while I was at work today.
21-mile round trip today. Go me!
