First commute of the New Year!

I chose my #bicycle, even if it was only 37°'F/3°C - excited that both my road bike (frame repair) and the cycle path (Tropical Storm Chantal) are up and running again.

Celebrations were short-lived, as the bridge across Booker Creek is still out with no detour, forcing me to walk along the ditch of a 6-lane highway.

All things considered, a pleasant start to the New Year!

@thomrstrom Congrats for your first commute! Is this a bamboo frame? If so, it's amazing!

@nitot Yup, hand-crafted in my garage about 7 years ago. It's seen about 7000mi/12000km of riding so far.

I did have to rebuild the left chainstay after stepping on the frame during a stumble this June, that sucked, but the bike still got me to my destination!
