Default Ride to work. Work to Ride.

I saw this line in a guys sig last week

Ride to work, Work to ride.

I ride to work and it really makes my day a lot better as you can imagine. I ride in about 15 miles. I'm lucky tho have 3 different ways to go with a dozen variations.

So who else Rides to work?

Ric

I bet I put on 10,000 riding to work last year, not even 3000 this year due to my back pain. I live 25 miles from work. I bought my first bike to save gas when it hit $4. Made a difference.

I do, but it's only a 22 mile round trip.

When the weather is cooler I usually leave for work two or three hours early.

Smile Ride to work

Ride to work 25 miles each way. It almost makes me look forward to getting up for work. And getting out of work!

I ride most days..rain or shine...about 23 miles one way. About 17k last year and just hit 10k this year.

I think it clears my mind.

Getting off work feels even better when you know that bike is sitting out there waiting for you!

I am a service tech, so I travel quite a bit for work, but on those days I can ship parts to a job and work all day at one or two locations I ride . sometimes I can get a 100 mile ride in. I love it I wish I could commute everyday.

As many days as I can. The only thing I hate is when park outside where my desk is. The chrome blinds me when the sun hits it!

My other vehicle is a Ford V-10 Excursion. My signature line when I drive that thing is "I drive to work to pay for gas to drive to work"
