Meet Eric - Super Commuter





Eric works second shift in the pressroom which means he rides to work in the heat of the day and then pedals home in the dark. Eric lives about 3 blocks from me (75th & Holdrege) but we don't ride to work together because of work shifts. As long as i've known Eric he has always rode his bike to work - even in the snow! Here's what Eric had to say about riding to work:

approx. how far do you ride each day (roundtrip)? 12 miles


do you wear a helmet? no


how many days have you rode to work since july 1st? 7 days - I took some vacation in July

if you ride 30 times, what will you spend the $100 on? Bike bags, bike seat, front chainring gear (for more top-end speed ;-)

things you like best about riding to work: the [free] workout



worst part of commuting by bike: sometimes people try to run me over



any good commuting stories, co-workers thoughts or changes you've made since you started riding: I always feel good after a hard ride.
