Needs some commuting advice
I take the A1 to work, which works out at 22 miles door to door. HOwever if I take a bike route it’s 16 miles, which is manageablish.
It’s from Gosforth to Sacriston in COuntry Durham, so there will be a couple of long steady hills going in.
I presume that even riding my HT with road tyres it’s going to be wasting loads of energy compared to a proper road bike.
Current diesel costs to work is about 14p per mile so is costing at the moment around £6 a day travel, maybe a bit more.
So all sounds doable as long as I don’t need to lug masses of books home with
Is it going to make a massive difference the bike I am on? Any websites that will show me the elevation changes so I can see how bad the hills really are.
