Eating bugs

I have swallowed more bugs in the last week than I think I have in my entire life!

I have been riding my bike to work, and in the last five days of work I have took to two wheels on four of those days (32 miles to/from work, plus a 1 mile roundtrip to the grocery store on my day off).
It's four miles one way, and takes me about 25 minutes. No major hills (I avoid them), but there is enough of an elevation climb both ways to be annoying and make my thighs feel like they are on fire.
But who's complaining?
(Me . . . )
It's all for the better good of mankind. My normal workout with Gym doesn't seem to be cutting it.
My only real complaint should be having to wear winter gloves in the morning at 5:30 a.m., and having to wear shorts on the way home.
Oh. And to try and keep the bugs from flying in my mouth and up my nose.

I think it is great that you are biking to work. Extra workout, saves gas, a bug sampler every day; not such a bad thing.
