It's been a few years since I've retired, but commuting was an enjoyable part of my work days. In fact, I was a bit sad to stop commuting, and made a point of taking a photo of the last time I locked the bike up to the rack outside of work....
a view of the bike in a more idyllic setting...
and in a more winter-ish setting...
amazingly, there was no snow on the ground when I started that ride! I think I was out for less than an hour, and turned home early due to how fast the snow was accumulating!
