Bike 10 Bus 0. In September I have now done 10 commutes , and not once has the bus I would take if I wasn't cycling passed me! Quicker, cheaper, better for the planet, better for my health.

Extending the commute to avoid traffic allows for some half way decent views along the river. Spending 9 miles on a multi-use path while commuting in the morning is also great preparation for the day.

Hi Richard, bike rack has been here for a long time. I prefer something I can rest my bike against as the weight of the panniers means front wheel bike stands are not so good. Modern upright stands where you can rest a bike on and lock seem to be what is being installed more and more.

A new job in the central city meant having to think about commuting. I drove for a couple of weeks, while settling in, and used a Kiwi parking share app to avoid making the carpark barons richer.Leer más

Wow, do you wear an action camera? With all that action you could start your own YouTube channel, would be much better than the dross on the mainstream media. I noticed that for the last few weeks cars seemed happy to get relatively close to me, generally nothing uncomfortable, but this morning there was noticeably more space given which, I think, was due to me having my action cam mounted on my helmet.
