    Default Bike Commuting

    Since i started school at MRU, ive been cycling to school every day, brings a positive start to the day.

    Ride from approx 14th street and John Laurier to MRU, i will be doing this until i absolutely cant ride anymore due to excessive snow or something or the like.

    I ride a fixed gear road bike (50-16 gearing). I would recommend something fixed gear like for winter cycling. Gives you a little more control.
    And at the very least a rear blinking light on your seatpost or whatever.

    Anyone here commute other than myself?
    How far is your commute?
    Any reccomendations/advice for other commuters?

    I was commuting from the north end of Coventry Hills to downtown.. it's about 23k one way.. but I've given that up for the winter now. Time to study on the bus again..
