I live a 15 mile cycle from work. The route is mostly off road national cycle route through rural areas heading into the city. The bus is becoming a nightmare so I'm considering trying to cycle. I was going to start in the Spring as in order to get into work to start on time i'd need to leave around 6.15am so thought i'd wait until it started to be a bit lighter, but the bus commute is doing my head in so may try and get going on it sooner. Anyone else do a similar length cycle commute (mostly in the dark at present)? The first 2 miles from my house is uphill but then it's a gentle slope into the city finishing mostly on the flat. On the way home it's a gentle incline for 12ish miles then down hill for the final few. I've commuted to work in the past (10 years ago) but not as far as this. I'm relatively fit but could do with dropping a stone or so. Any experience or tips would be greatly appreciated.
