I ride my bicycle to and from work every day all the year round. It's about a ten-minute riding. I enjoy the journey. I never drive a car. In fact, I don't even have one. That's not because I can't afford a car but that I like riding my bicycle. What about you?

I have to travel about 14 miles one-way to work, and the public transportation doesn't serve the area I live in, so I have to drive. Riding my bicycle isn't really feasible with the traffic here and the often rapidly changing weather, so I drive my Chevy to work. I wish I lived closer to work, or that I could work from home so that I wouldn't have to drive to work, but I work six nights per week, and I work in a restaurant, so working from home is not an option for me. I use about one tank of gas per week though (roughly about $20 by the prices right now), so I guess I do OK...

Thank you for your respose, goldeneagle! I understand. Diving to work in necessary in your condition. Riding a bike for such a long way does harm to the prostate.Good luck to you!

Oh, I remember something to tell you. Recently I hear diving for a long time also does harm to the prostate. So make your cushion as soft as possible.

I have ridden bicycles for years, sometimes as far as 20 miles or more, so the damage to my prostate was probably done LONG ago...these days I am more afraid of what a fast-moving vehicle could do to me if it hit me on the way to work...LOL This and the weather here are the two main reasons I don't ride my bicycle to work...

Hi yxinxin! I am a housewife and at the same time I have a small business that i tend to. I usually get to my business appointments and household errands by taking public transportation and if it is just close by, I will walk. I do have a very close friend that goes to work by bike everyday and it is really great that he does. It keeps him healthy and fit. I do admire people who have the stamina and the strength to use bikes or go on foot. Keep it up my friend. It is good exercise! Take care and have a nice day! lovelots..faith210

I go to work and go home on foot everyday. It takes me about half an hour and I regard it as a kind of exercise daily. I think it's a good behavior for our environment:) I love China
