ianukSo, a while back to help people get in shape and get around a bit easier they started putting commuter bikes in the lobbies so you can use to get from A to B around plant site. Its 1.25 miles as the bike travels to get to the factory I need to be in this morning so i got 2.5 miles of biking in at 14.5 mph (not bad on a heavy, 3 geared, commuter with a big ass seat). I might see if its available again for my noon meeting when I have to be over there again...cause 5 miles in would be good for me. We shall see.
My only bitch is that the building I'm going to has no gate that I can get the bike through and I had to walk a rather long way. They had a bike rack inside the gate....which doesn't make any sense.
EDIT:
Did a second ride...a bit more mileage and found the one manned gate that let me bike on through. Very glad I biked today and now I don't feel too bad about not doing it when I get home. Plus, I don't think I'll need my nap.
