I'd love to ride a bike to work, but work needs to be within biking distance.
My company does have one office nearby, but not a department that supports my line of work there. I can use it if I want to, but with none of the people I communicate with about I could as well work at home then.
But who knows. Things are in flux and we might end up there. Then I do have the following commute options:
- Car (obviously)
- Bike
- Tram (plus 2 x 600 m walking)
- Canoe (err... Not keen as a sailor and windsurfer, but it would be possible!)
- Inline skates (haven't touched them for 18 years after hurting my ***... but there's a dedicated pedestrian route for most of the way, with some interesting detours as well).
As for my current commute: no dice. One of my colleagues has a
pedelec (electric support up to 45 km/h) and frequently uses it for his 18 km commute. But my commute is double that and my physical condition is half his
