Default Riding to Work!!

Started riding to work a couple of week ago. Heres what I learned..

1. Allow extra 10-15 minutes in the morning to gear up ect!!!
2. If you leave @ dawn a dark visor doesn't work but, on a 1 1/2 commute the sun will be blinding before its over. Solution for me was clear shield with tint strip across the top...
3. Leaving the house in 65 degree weather and coming home in 95+, convertible jacket with wearable liner is nice, evap cooling vest is nicer!!!

Anybody else got any ideas for commuting on a bike\
