My first bike ride to work in months, today. It took even less time than I had expected! I took the longer, less-hilly route and it was still well under 30 minutes from walking out my front door to walking in my office door. Having a working bike is amazing.
Finally asked the bike dude (Tyler at Paramount Cycles) what to do about the dings in the paint on my steel frame. He handed me a little bottle of black nail polish. This made me say: oh! no! I bet I have a better match at home! And, indeed, I did have a little bottle of sparkly midnight blue nail polish that matched my frame almost exactly.
I just can't tell you how much more MYSELF I feel when I'm able to bike to work. The depth of this feeling surprises me every time.
