I made a pun on the title! haw

Anyway, I’ve bought a road bike. It’s blue, see?

I’ve had it for less than a week, and I’ve already ridden it quite a bit. The primary reason of this purchase, was to make my 6 mile work commute a bit more pleasant, and it sure has become so now! Cruising on a road bike is so much faster than when on a mountain bike, which means that I can go faster with less effort.
Actually, I don’t know if it’s less effort. When I commuted using my mountain bike, I’d get out of breath before my legs got tired. But on the road bike, I feel my legs working but I’m breathing.
At any rate, I’m very happy that I found this bike up on CraigsList, and that I went for it. I wish I’d gotten a road bike sooner to cruise around town!

    After several days of hard mountain biking, I rode the road bike in to work today. Comparatively, the road bike seems to be effortless. It almost floats to work!
