My recumbent commuter. On my commute (28 km.'s one way) I carry a 10 liter seatbag that I can attach to the back of the seat and which also acts as a rear mudguard. On the front derailleur boom there is a clamp to attach a bright battery powered flashlight for riding at night. (but I also have a battery powered very bright LED light on my helmet).

Nice Trek

One of my two. This one's for good weather:http://i.imgur.com/p94a1.jpg

Wow, I love that 720!

My Commuter just starting to wake up!

I'd recommend flipping the taillight if possible. It slides down rather than up the way it's mounted now, so a good bump could get it to fall off (vs a good bump the other way would still need to get it to slide up far enough to get out of the bracket). It looks like there should be enough clearance with the top bar of the rack (to slide the light in) if you use the horizontal mounting holes on the taillight bracket. Just a thought. :)

A lousy phonecam pic of my bike on the train during my first bike commute. 19 miles of riding and a 30 minute train ride. The biggest problem was just getting my lazy butt out of bed and hour and a half earlier than I'm used to.

19 miles one way??

I'm surly before I get my morning java, too.;)

Yes, round trip is 38 miles plus an hour on the train. It's a wash on time, as my driving commute and time spent riding comes to about the same time as bike commuting, but I'm converting an hour of the driving time to bike time.

Finally got my bike commuterized - about 90%. Still need to get a frame pump, and the lights are in the mail. A kind BF member has posted hybrid pedals, so those will go on once I get them. Will probably save towards cycling spd shoes now - why are those things so freaking expensive?! Haven't seen anything lower than $100 in REI or Performance. Buying online is tricky w.r.t shoe fitting.

new this spring

Finally got around to posting a pic of my new commuter from this spring. Took the picture on my ride home from the shop . Its an MEC Chance 11spd, alfine igh, aluminum frame, carbon fiber frontforks and seat post,and shamanio hydraulic disc brakes. 2000kms in and I'm still lovin it.

Go into REI, find ones that fit, buy online.

The Daily Driver- Got pedal covers for the speedplays- work well if I want to ride in street shoes. The dynohub is probably the best investment I've made on this bike- no more batteries!

Heh, I've been meaning to fix that. I flipped it up because the little tab on the mounting bracket for the light(that should be pointing down) was rubbing with the fender and pushing it a little to the side making the fender rub the tire.

That's a pretty Fuji, yokotas!

This is my commuter, 10 miles a day, 5 days a week. I know it´s not the usual commuter, but it´s the best way to let the other guys wonder if it´s the bike or the biker the reason they were overtook

Excellent commuter.
A question, what type of grips are those on the bike?

Love the paint scheme on your bike.

Love seeing all the commuter bikes, and hear about those actually commuting to work, etc. I do as well, and use my utility trailer to get groceries as much as possible. But yet, there are some that don't get it. They'd rather drive the 3 km to a store. I can beat them there and back, with a monsterous hill in the vineyard, all because I'm on trails............no traffic lights. Thanks for sharing everyone!

Always wanted to see a road bike with fenders :)

Thanks, man. It belonged to my dad before me, who took it cross country. The thing's older than I am, and still going strong.

11 yr old off to middle school. 5 miles a day.

This is his first year in middle school. He has strong opinions on how his lunch must be structured to fit in at school, and what underwear is acceptable to reveal now that he has to change for PE, but no issues w/ that ginormous triangle.

Good to see 'em started off right. :thumb:

This bike (a Trek FX 7.2)http://bikeforums.net/attachment.php...hmentid=275164 gets my son to daycare and me to work, 5 days a week. I started out with an i-Bert safety seat (which mounts on the front) and a rear rack and panniers, but my knees kept hitting the seat and it made it hard to stop at stoplights (my bike doesn't have enough room for me to hop off the saddle with that seat). So I switched to the Topeak seat with front rack. Makes the bike feel more cumbersome but feels safer. I think my son preferred the front seat- the view from this one is pretty boring.

I'd always wondered about those iBerts. The Topeaks seemed boring but a safer model. In the end I decided I liked doing the trailer thing instead (but them I'm lucky enough to be able to leave the trailer at the daycare when I do it (not as often as I should).

Here's the CX bike I commute on...

Where're the racks and fenders? :P Ok, if you live someplace dry (I remember those days), you don't need fenders. ;) I hate wearing a backpack when I ride, so I have to have some kind of bags on my commuter.
