Since I had to work today, I had decided ahead of time that today I would ride the darn bike home.
After doing some research online and finding this really useful PDF showing bike paths available from the VTA I plotted another course home that would not take me along the death trap that is El Camino.
Even though the overall distance was a bit longer the ride was a lot more enjoyable this time around. Going along a bike path is a lot more enjoyable than dodging traffic.
Not to mention I didn’t inhale an insect this time. The ride still took about 45 mins which means I was only going about 10 mph, but it felt a lot better this time and I don’t think I’ll be having a sore bum tomorrow, Huzzah!
