Bike Commuting: Part Three

My First Test Ride

You know where I work, Mercer Transportation, and that's in Louisville, Kentucky. There is an awesome Bridge, coined Big Four Bridge! Big Four Bridge is 2.5 miles away from Mercer Transportation.

I did it!

I made it to the bridge after 20 minutes.

The Ride

This was a delight to ride, I hadn't ever really read on a main road before and it was amazing. I really appreciated the other drivers on the roads. I was on the Main Road for the most of the ride, but eventually I got to a side road. I also wore my AirPds Pro with Transparency Mode turned on so that I could hear the outside world. That was very appreciated.

How did my bike get to work?

I packed my bike into the back of my car before I left for work and I stored my bike next to my desk before I rode.

The New Bike

Again, I don't particularly know what bike this is, all I know is this bike is a little bigger (more for an adult than a youth). It was very nice to ride. It's got more road tires than the more off-road tires from the previous bike. I look forward to riding more.

Next Ride

When am I riding next? I'd love to ride tomorrow! With that in mind, I'm going to be keeping my bike at work! I have a closet that locks next to my desk, and that's where that will stay, until I ride again.
