This ought not to be that surprising really, but cycling has been shown to be the healthiest transport mode. What is your experience? I know I love getting on my bike, I wish I had more time. I love my commutes, yes, it can be tough getting going in less than perfect weather, but the hardship can actually bring higher levels of positivity.

Multi-city study unanimously concludes cycling is the healthiest transport mode An EU funded study, undertaken as part of the PASTA Project, has found cycling to be the healthiest mode of transport in both physical and mental terms.

Marin is offering a free 2nd battery with their E bikes. If you had been thinking about your first or a new E bike this is a great deal.

I've got this new bike, love it!

The Exe Estuary Trail is fully open again. What a massive repair job, removing the rotting boardwalk section and rebuilding with a fibre reinforced polymer. My commute is now a little shorter, less hilly and so much more scenic. Perhaps you already use the trail for leisure or commuting, if not give it a try. Get off the road, out of the car. Yes it takes a bit more thinking about, especially if the weather is less than perfect, but after a few rides you get into the swing of it. I'd love to hear from you if you have taken up the bike commute. Lets work together to get stronger in mind and body and in some small way do a bit more for the planet too.
