balance

I've ridden the Cannondale to work twice this week, in weather which might, at the old office, have been enough for me to drive. Hard to say what tipped me over the edge on motivation. Was it the pretty new ride home (morning ride is basically the same)? Was it the shiny new light? Was it wanting to get to a nice round number by the end of the month? Or was it the fact that now my round trip commute is noticeably less extra time to do by bicycle instead of by car? If any of it is that last one, it's an interesting case where lowering the effort I do per day increases the effort I do per week.
