No sugar coating whatsoever.
Pros:
- I've lost a lot of weight and still am able to eat anything I want.
- I don't have to drive and be stressed out by idiot drivers.
- Keeps my car mileage, money spent on gas and cost of maintenance down.
- I've never been late for work since bike commuting.
Cons:
- I have to wake up at 4:30 am.
- The first mile or two of riding in the morning cold sucks.
- Riding in the rain when it’s cold out sucks.
- People think I'm doing this to save the environment.
