I leave home at around seven, at which point the sun is well up. My commuting route is in a south-easterly direction most of the way. Slightly more south first, which leaves much of the road in the shade. From Brommaplan on (that&#8217;s just short of halfway for me) I bike along the Drottningholmsv\u00e4gen in a more easterly direction. The bike lane there is next to a wide four-lane road, which gives us cyclists plenty of morning sun.<\/p>\n<p>The Drottningholmsv\u00e4gen is a major bike thoroughfare with a lot of traffic. I&#8217;m normally early enough to miss peak bike traffic. Half an hour later, there will be clumps of twenty, thirty cyclists waiting at each red light. It never gets too bad, but it&#8217;s enough that I make sure not to sleep late or dawdle at home.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve only got just over two kilometres of the wide, smooth, crowded bike lane if I&#8217;m going to the Sortera office. At Alvik almost all of the crowd continues east towards the city, whereas I turn off onto quieter roads towards the south-east again. By that time I&#8217;m warm enough that I don&#8217;t even notice whether I&#8217;m in the sun or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s the perfect season for bicycle commuting.
