The new commuter

The bike is great! I've been riding it for three weeks now. I reach max gear and higher speeds much faster than my old bike. My legs stretch out further, which feels great. I am exercising different muscles and stretching my legs more than before.

It took a few days to adjust. After the first ride around the park and down by the bay my crotch and my legs were soar for a few days... Then my body adjusted and as I got used to it the benefits were clear.

The smooth ride and faster acceleration led me to ride a longer route to work, which is much safer, and I still get to work within 15 minutes or less if there are no delays.
