Any way, I've been commuting to work since August, and for the most part people at work have been cool with it. I've even had a few people ask for advice so they could start riding. But, there is the occasional person that likes to be a jerk. The other day I had a guy come up to me and say "Hey, why can't you be like every body else and buy a car?"
My supervisor also likes to single me out, in front of every one and ask how I'm going to get to work in the winter, just to laugh at me while I explain that the trail is in fact plowed, and it won't be an issue.

I know some of you have been commuting a lot longer then me, how do you handle resistance from your coworkers that just don't seem to get it?

As a side note, I have yet to miss a day of work. I've commuted through the storms, dodged the fallen trees, and gone eight miles on the trail without a light when mine died, there was even some snow last week. I've loved every minute of it, and to be honest, if I had to drive, I'd probably quit my job.
