biking to work


My commute to work is about 30 miles, so it's not something I can do every day, but I wanted to bike to work at least once before the trip. I finally was able to on Tues. April 29th. I got off at about 6:30, and arrived at work a little after 9. Total riding time was 1 hour 22 minutes, and the distance was a little over 31 miles. I went slower than I had hoped, but the wind wasn't in my favor :)

I chose to ride over the Traverse Mountain road, to get from Salt Lake Valley to Utah Valley. The photo is one that I snapped at the top.

I felt really good on the ride there. By the time I got back home I was pretty tired, but I didn't get sore at all, so that is a good sign! :)
