Why commute or use your bike for errands?
Think of yourself as a proud two-wheeling member of those supporting a green community. Commuting cuts down on pollution, helps you stay in shape, saves you money in car maintenance and at the pumps, avoids traffic congestion and can energize you on the way to work while allowing you to pedal away stress on the way home.
