If you've been thinking about commuting by bicycle, fall is the perfect time to try this. One of the biggest hindrances to bicycle commuting is stinky sweat, but at this time of year the air is cool during the morning commute. Bicycle commuting is literally "no sweat."
Bill Milbratz lists these incentives to autumn bicycle commuting on the Icebike discussion list. (Reprinted here with his kind permission.)
- Keep off those pounds before Thanksgiving / Hannukah / Christma / Ramadan / New Years cookies, cakes and candies attack your waistline.
- Save commuting costs.
- Reduce stress of car traffic and public transportation.
- Get you to work invigorated.
- Build your exercise routine into your daily schedule.
- Allow you to see your neighborhood up close and personal.
- All without breaking a sweat.
