The ride really isn't all that far ... maybe three miles, maybe fifteen minutes. Both my house and my office are right off of the W&OD Bike Trail, and old railroad that has been converted to a bike trail. The way to work is nice & flat, and there is very little traffic to worry about, well, until I try to cross Sully.
I really should get home and mow the lawn ... we haven't mowed in three weeks. Last week Miriam and I celebrated her birthday in DC. The week before it was raining, and the week before that the lawn was so dry, there just wasn't anything to mow.
