I am not giving up on the winter riding just yet. I am not willing to give up my bike commuting lifestyle. I learned a lot last year and I am sure will learn a lot this year. and on the plus side by the time winter comes i will be stronger and better able to ride my commuter faster. Maybe some day I can get it to just over an hour.
on my road bike I can almost get it down to an hour and a half. I will not let winter beat me.
