Saved ~20min commuting today
I have been taking public transportation to my new work location. It usually takes 40min, 50 if I am unlucky and had to wait. Driving is completely out of the question since it would have taken wayy longer because of traffic.
Today is the second time I commuted by bike. First time I took 40min because I got lost..but today, to my pleasant surprise, it was only 25min! Somehow I managed to save time, money and get exercise all at at the same time. Wish I started earlier.
Minor complaint: Had to stay in easiest 3 gear most of the time. Too many start-go-stops and i have a downtube bike. Had to shift like I am driving a manual car..not cool. miss my old interruption free commute.
