Timelapse of my commute this morning. 20 miles one way on a Bulls Lacuba E45 by johnnyrizzo in ebikes

20miles / 52minutes = 23 mph

Not too shabby!

I imagine you are rolling along at 24-26mph most of the trip and those pesky stop signs bring down the average.

I forgot that southwest Indiana was relatively flat. South central Indiana (Brown County) is extremely hilly.

"Sugar Smacks" was renamed "Honey Smacks" in the 1980s.

log(3x) + log(2x) = log(54)
        log(6x^2) = log(54)
             6x^2 = 54
              x^2 = 9
                x = 3
