For the Love of Bike

The unusual warm winter weather this year has been great for riding.  On Thursday I was able to commute to work and I love having that opportunity.  It takes around an hour and is a wonderful start to my day.  I'm at just under 400 miles for the year and my bike is in need of a tuneup.  I took it into the shop today and I felt like I was leaving a child at daycare.  "You'll take good care of him, right?"

Fortunately the shop owner seems to like me and since I bought it there I hope to have it back tomorrow.  I'll get a ride in from a coworker and then ride it home. 

Here's a few pics from some of my recent rides.
