Finally Cycling to Work 15 Jun 09
So, its Bike Week apparently, which suggests that it might be a good time to mention that I am finally cycling to work. Yes, I know it was over a year ago that I first mentioned the idea but to cut a long-story short, it took over 10 months for my bike to arrive.
Over the course of the last year, circumstances have changed slightly, leaving me only two days a week when its possible to cycle. On Mondays and Fridays, Sarah and I walk in together (its about 2.5 miles each way), dropping Ben into nursery on our way and on Thursdays (when Ben stays with my parents) we’ve been getting the bus. Still, cycling in on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, when Sarah doesn’t work, is better than nothing.
My cycle route is over 3.5 miles each way, so combined with the walking, it means I’m now covering around 25 miles a week, under my own steam. Not a bad start, I think, even if there are people who cycle further in just one commute.
