Today I began riding a bicycle to work, I hope to keep up this habit. It was pretty cold outside this morning so I had on about 4 layers. By the time I got to work 15 minutes later, I couldn't get the extra layers off fast enough.
I am so out of shape, well I guess I am a shape... round.
I haven't decided yet if I'm going to continue going to the gym along with the riding. I will probobly do both once I get a little more used to the idea of riding to work every morning.

How about do both riding and going to the gym alternatively? I enjoy riding but it would be more interesting to ride a longer distance (i.e. 20-40 miles a day).
Riding bicycle can improve the endurance of your body but it takes longer to elevate your heart rate. The gym can help improving your strength more effectively.
I always want to try those trails in Wenatchee, it seems more fun there than in Moses Lake.
I agree it does seem like it "should" take longer, but I am so out of breath even after 3 miles, I think I should get used to riding to work before anything I try anything crazy.
Is your saddle adjusted to the proper hight? Adequate adjustment is criticle to save energy for lond distance riding and prevent injuries.
Well said.
