Great to have you on board, and I have to agree with all the other members… that is a serious commute. I commute 25 miles round trip at least 5 days a week, sometimes 6 but all of a sudden I feel pretty lame in comparison to your 42 miles… Bravo! Much like you I took 12 years off the bike between 1993 and 2005 after a serious wreck nearly killed me… for the first time I didn’t get back on my horse and nearly put cycling behind me forever. In 2005 I started to miss the saddle so I began commuting and have never looked back. I feel mentally and physically healthier that I have in years, best therapy ever! I hope it does the same for you! Looking forward to crossing paths one of these days…. welcome!
