Commute upgrade and appreciation of this mode of transport

I have been comuting by bike for 3 years now, whether on an old steel racing bike or an ebike when in need of cargo.
Occasionnaly taking the car when beeing sick or for spécial needs.
I treated myself a nice gift with this new full carbon bike. I'm rediscovering the comuting by bike, feeling faster than ever. And the pains I used to get on my old bike seem to be disappearing with this new ride.

My commute is 16,5km (10miles for our friends across the pond), and I now regularly complete it in 30min- something that used to feel like an exceptional performance.

I feel lucky to live in a region with bike paths completely seperated from car traffic, and the natural surroundings bring me lots of good vibes.
I also appreciate the changing room and showers provided by employer, which allow me to arrive at my desk feeling fresh and clean.

Just wanted to share this with yall
