Bike Commuting - Getting Started

One of the challenges of bike commuting is getting started.  In its blog, the Environmental Protection Agency wonders why people are or aren’t biking to work, and safety concerns, distance, and smelliness emerge from the comments as key barriers.

There are a lot of resources on the web to help explore your options.  One good one is "Commute by Bike" a website with all sorts of resources: reviews of gear, bike suggestions, etc.  In particular there are some great articles in the area "Commuting 101" that answer all of the questions I've had.

If you're interested and have just five minutes, take a look at "6 Myths About Commuting By Bicycle."
