To bike...or to drive...

Nothing too exciting to report today. But, I do have a bit of a dilemma...

Summer classes are starting on Monday. I need to get up to school to pick up my text books. School is only 5.7 miles from work. But right smack in the middle, between work and school, is my house, where the car will be sitting. So I have options. I could bike all the way to school OR I could stop at home, pick up the car, and drive the rest of the way. I'm fairly certain that I will just ride all the way up there. It's not that far and I think it will actually be quite nice. I'll be soaking wet from sweat, but it will be a great workout. And it will give me whole new territory to explore on my bike. I'm really trying to commit to doing most of my communiting via bicycle. But it is very tempting to stop and pick up the car. I also just want to say that Google Maps is AWESOME! I am capable of getting "bicycle" directions. My friend Andrew told me about this. It is wonderful. And I will actually pass a Starbucks so I'll probably grab some iced tea on my way. Which makes me realize...I should have bought the cup holder for my bike. I ended up getting the bell, which is nice because now people can be warned when I am coming.
Anyways, I wish you all peace love and coffee!!!
