I will definitely try to cycle to work; I just love my cycle routine too much to give up as yet. It's a great way to relief stress after a busy day at work. I will see this as a challenge and will keep in mind that not only this is fun and healthy but it is great for my legs and my bum too" ; ) Thank you! Hello Charmaine,

My previous commute was about 18 or so miles. I felt the same way you did when I faced my new, longer commute. It does take longer, of course, but it was neat to meet the challenge. At first, it took me a little while to get used to the longer commute...sometimes I'd be pretty pooped by the time I got home. Also, the longer commute meant that I was out in the weather longer (be it hot, cold, rainy, windy, snowy, etc.), so I had to make sure I had the right clothing for whatever weather I needed to endure. It definitely makes you a stronger rider. :) I make sure I get to bed early enough so I have enough sleep to carry me through the day. I don't get sleepy during the day though - so you probably won't have to worry about that. Make sure you eat enough during the day and right before you get on your bike. I always carry an "emergency snack" in my bag (like a Cliff Bar), because sometimes, I run out of energy a few miles from home - and a snack helps to make it home...especially on the cold days. The weather seems to eat up whatever energy you have. But soon, your body will be used to the longer commute. Let me know if you have any other questions, if I can help you.

I currently commute 12 miles to work return, 5 times a week. The 6 miles each way take me about 25 minutes. Unfortunately I will have to move further away and my daily commute distance will increase to 26 miles a day. I am slightly worries that the additional distance will be too much for me and that I might be either extremely tired during the day. What was your experience when you started to commute those long distances? Did you adjust quickly to it? Thank you! guys,
i need your advise….

I have been gearing myself up for cycling to work that could be around 22-23 miles round trip. Not started yet, but plan to do step by step say twice a week initially. Just wondering if any thing should be in mind when doing this. Thank you Dube Hello
