Biking to Work?
There's never been a better time to commute on your own power. The reasons are many, but the best reason is because it's fun! Okay, we admit that the price of gasoline might be the biggest motivator to get you to try it. But once you've been doing it for a while you'll wonder why you didn't start sooner! If you're new to bike commuting and still have a few questions, you can get the answers you need from our Bike Commuting page or by joining our Yahoo group and asking local cyclists for their suggestions. Getting to work has never been this much fun!
Sometimes it can be faster to go on calories than on gasoline. It's definitely cheaper. Check out this race video at CultureSurfer.com.
