I did make it to work though, albeit somewhat hot and sweaty. The trip took about 40mins. Since that first day I've done the ride another 10 or so times, refined the route and have begun working on shortening the travel time. First I got it down to 30 mins and my best so far is 28 mins something. I track each ride using a brilliant little (free) iPhone app called <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=289333140&mt=8">Trailguru</a> (app store link). It records my ride logging the route with GPS, the duration and distance. When I arrive at my destination I stop it recording and can then upload the ride to the <a href="http://www.trailguru.com/">companion site</a>. Each trail gets a page where there is plot of the route on Google Maps, graphs of altitude, pace and speed as well as other stats.
Below is a sample ride to work that Trailguru recorded:

Trailguru also lets you search for trails and will show others near your own. You can also take and upload photos with the iPhone app. I haven't used that feature yet as my phone is in my bag during the ride but I'd like to get an iPhone bike mount so I can use it as a speedometer as well. You can see all my trails on my <a href="http://www.trailguru.com/ui/user/tracks/Wmoore">Trailguru user page</a>.

I'm trying to do three rides a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. That gives me a break in between while I'm getting used to it and should also still be <a href="http://notahat.com/posts/30">beneficial fitness wise</a>. However I've only managed that once so far due to after work engagements and bad weather. Time will tell how it goes but I'm enjoying it so far.
