Oh boy!
I began my challenge this morning and it wasn’t easy. It is my longest one-way commute on a bicycle so far. It took about 40 minutes. I feel it could have been shorter if I took another route with fewer and shorter hills. There’s another route I know of that I will be trying tomorrow to compare.
Change of cloth
This is a no-brainer. I need to buy one or two pair of cycling kits. I’ll ride with it to the office and have a change of cloth in the office. It may mean leaving a few Tees in the office as well. This isn’t difficult since my laundry guys pick up and deliver to the office.
Sweat
Oh My! I was soaked after the 40 minutes ride. I carried a face towel, but I barely had time to wipe on the road. Not sure of how to deal with this yet.
Lighter
I felt very light after cleaning up compared with how I feel after getting off a cab. That is after two cups of water J
Laptop Bag
Though, I carry a very light laptop, I thinks the ride could have been lighter and more comfortable without the backpack. Again, I am not sure of how to handle this yet since leaving my laptop in the office isn’t doable for now.
That’s an awesome choice. I’m just of the opinion that if you tried that in some places in Nigeria, you will be a guest to at least one of the teaching hospitals. #chuckles
Terrible roads, we need good roads in Nigeria
