Welcome to cycle commuting.
To cycle commute you need a job and a bike. That was easy.


When you are looking for info, you have to be wary of sport-related sites, these are not always appropriate to the commuter.
Many bike shops treat cycling as a sport, but those that sell touring bikes usually have a more practical attitude.

A couple of commuting links:

http://www.bicyclinglife.com/Effecti...oadsWeHave.htm

Their links pages should point you in useful directions. See Effective Cycling by John Forrester. This is a book/course that encapsulates all the experience of transportational cyclists regarding road use.

How far do you live from work? That can determine the approach you take to riding. What is your current transportation budget ? We can help you set a realistic cycling budget without over or underspending.

Ask away, we are always glad to help a new commuter.
