Bike Commute Diaries: Lighter Than Air

    I just bought my first road bike… holy moly do I get fast without even trying… riding a 30 pound plus bike every day must be a great workout.
    Although I almost threw my new bike through my mud room because I lifted it like I would a heavy bike and it went flying 😀
