Passing with Flying Colors

Yesterday was the big test. Can I get to work and back? If not we basically have a $405/month eco friendly doorstop...or giant Mophie Juice Pack for my iPhone...and I'd be investing in a high intensity headlight for my bike.

I'll get into the details in a future post but the bottom line is...it made it!  Did a 55 mile commute.  About half highway, half back roads.  Plus a 7 mile errand on local roads for a total of 62 miles and and ended up with 21 left on the GOM (Guess O Meter)!

Not too bad.  Range anxiety assuaged.

Next test.  Lead foot Kerry taking it out for her 62 mile mostly highway commute.
