Hold on Sargent, those are my views!!!

Except I seem to be going the other way - I go west in the morning and east in the evening!

mavis - Mine Too!! can't ever complain cycling to work. Looking at some of the other pictures though, can't help but think it would be nice to have a bit of green in the view rather than mainly blue.

Mavis
I was about to tell Sargent the same thing but I go west - east.
We must pass each other

Hmm, there are quite a few regulars along the front...

I'm normally riding a dark green fixie with drop bars and (ahem) pink tyres!!

I'm quite fortunate to have the Leeds/Liverpool canal as my commute, Bingley doorstep to Skipton doorstep

This is my one and only climb

love this thread! makes me want to work closer to home!

I work form home so don't get to cycle either, I wish I did have a bit of a commute just to get me out sometimes. A few miles to work and back would do me good.

Id love to ride to work , its just over 20 miles each way , but it would mean leaving the house at 5.15 in the morning , and there are no showers at work ..

๐Ÿ™ this thread depresses me.. so wish I lived close to trails and had a cheeky route to work..

I guess I should be thankful I have a bike commute at all even if it is split up with a small train journey..

Another working at home, and feeling envious of some of the great routes some of you guys get to cycle on everyday.

๐Ÿ™ I can get a few hundred meters of "dirt' taking a diversion through a park, that actually makes it a longer and not worthwhile.

However, now that down here is turning to spring and summer, the long way via the beach will be getting ridden soon, and if I can convince a) a few others and b) the wife, an Aussie Nuit De Bivi may be in order to spice up a few rides to/from work

Great Pics....makes me miss the Malverns, and living in the UK.
Just got a new camera, so when the National Holidays finish, I'll take some of my lovely commute to work.

my view most days commuting from dyce(ish) into union street .....

stumpy_m4 my commute is 20 miles each way, although I leave at a more reasonable 7am. Our last office didn't have any facilities at all so it was baby wipes in the disabled toilet.
