My commute is like 10 miles each way and after a year or so I now feel ok to commute every day without need of recovery.
I don't race to work or home - I see bunch of fast riders, e-bikes passing me, but be it - keep my pace and is good. It takes me about a hour door to door including shower at work place
<-- very nice.
This week I tried a longer route going home that adds me extra 9 miles and found out I have a stretch of 5 miles or so that keeps going down. Well, I have to climb it first though.
I never have ridden in this direction, always on the other way, so was a pleasant discovery for me
.
Not a rainy day rider, but thinking on getting to it this winter since traffic around here is getting worst and worst.
