In my last post I set the stage for how Mr.Wow and I decided to move back in with my parents. Today I’m going to hash out how it went and what the take-aways were.

Given the time of year, I want to approach a topic that is near and dear to my heart. Commuting on a bike, not that kind, like the good old-fashioned pedal kind.
