Thats way cool about the biking to work %. There have been times that I've wondered if it was worth it....sitting in the bike lane, next to all the idling cars, just off the freeway. Some times the polution levels are enough to cause me to choke. On the other hand, I'm not sure that sitting in a car offers that much more protection.

In fact its been studied and the outcome was that in your car you are actually getting more of that exhaust than the person who is on the bike, even though they are outside.
