    Me too... at the moment I am trying to get in two rides a day - just 45-60 minutes each time.

    I find I have more energy at work after an early morning ride.
    I find I can face the evening better with an evening ride before dinner
    I find I sleep more soundly, and it is longer before I wake up...


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".

    My husband remarked last night "You don't need as much sleep since you've been exercising." (Meaning biking primarily, plus situps & pushups every night.)

    100% agreement with the sentiments expressed here!

    I wrote this huge long reply, but it all boiled down to a simple idea: Commuting by bike is addictive. I started with a six-mile one way commute and am up to 13.5 miles each way. It's not always fun, but it's always worth it.

    Never give up. Never surrender.
