what about the sweat?
- dasil003 15y agoDon't go so fast? Get a gym membership and shower there? Get a coffee and relax for a few minutes before you go into the office?
- stretchwithme 15y agoI did this when there was a shower at the office and it works out fine. Of bigger concern is being run over by multi-taskers.
- peter_l_downs 15y agoI bike to work. Sometimes I can get sort of sweaty, but I bring my work clothes in a bag and change once I get there.
- bjxrn 15y agoDon't race to work, just ride. Sweat isn't a problem when riding at a calm pace unless you're either in really bad shape, or you have some medical condition which causes abnormal sweating.
- dionidium 15y agoThat's a silly thing to say. Here in St. Louis, for example, we have very hot, humid summers. It's not hard to break a sweat casually walking.
- bjxrn 15y agoFair enough, I hadn't considered extreme heat. So I'll change my assertion to: if you can walk without sweating, you can bike without sweating. Just to expand on my first comment: I live in the Netherlands. People here bike everywhere. They wouldn't do that if they got sweaty and had to take a shower every time they arrived somewhere.
