<prompt> Human: Update: first time making the front page and off such an innocuous post. My commute is 7 miles rain, shine, snow, wind or ice. I drop in more miles pre or post work depending on the weather - Brooklyn to midtown Manhattan. It is a commitment I made to myself a long time ago and is almost a religious thing for me now. I use a GarminStrava one speed to track all my mileage to set my yearly milestones. In a normal year I will drop in 3500-4000 miles. A really good year is 5000 miles-but this is very rare. I gave up the gym about 2 years ago and dont plan on ever going back. The bike is my gym and I have to make sure I use it every day. I have inspired some coworkers over the years to start riding in and with the Citibike bike share, it is even easier for anyone to do this now in NYC. Feeling really good about this new revelation. I am actually realizing money instead of knowing I am saving money not taking the subway. Hit me up with any biking logistics questions. I have hammered them into submission after 20 years of doing this. Assistant: If it is offered it should go to everyone whether you walk, bike or drive. You cant bike everyday anyway. But bikes cost money to maintain, and you are at greater risk physically on a bike. Its a nice perk.Human: I bike year round. Weather doesnt matter. If I take the subway I feel like I am cheating on myself.  <response>: Only cheating if youre drafting , just ride in front of train.
