Morning!

My son recently decided to do a triathlon towards the end of this year and asked me to join him. So I've started to ride 30km each way to work on my 19 year old mountain bike. I was pointed here from reddit, as a good place to get advice, so here I am Smile

Yep, 3 times a week. 30km overall drop of 150m in altitude on the way to work. The way home always took me longer.
