Patrick Perugini This morning after my ride into work I overheard a conversation between two guys visiting our building. They were talking about gas prices. Conversation du jour. The first guy complained that his 15-mile drive costs him nearly $8 per day. The second guy, not to be out-done, said his commute was nearly 25 miles. He said this almost bragginly, expecting us to be impressed. He didn't realize I ride to work by bike; I'm probably the last person who's going to be impressed by a long car drive. The first guy responded by saying that his commute must be costing him about $12 per day. I chuckled. He turned to me and asked how much my commute cost each day. I replied, "this morning, it cost me a banana and a bowl of raisan bran cereal... I ride my bike." Apparently, this was not the answer he was hoping for. But he said "good for you," looked at his watch and apparently realized he would rather be someplace else and left. I guess he's last person to be impresseded by someone who commutes by bike.

That makes May the best month of the year to make good on your goals of cycling to work. During this month, many cities around the country will be helping cyclists explore new bike paths and commuting routes by bike.

I have set my own personal goal to ride 15 days this month. I wish I could ride every day, but like many of you, I have to set aside at least one day a week to run errands during the day. My ride this morning througha crisp 35 degree New England morning was refreshing, and well worth it. I tried a new route for my 7 mile commute this morning. Its fun to explore some new streets and see some new faces.
