Tommy has logged over 500 miles on his commuter bike, and he's pumped to go another 500! I think even he is suprised at how much he loves to ride his bike to work. With no snow on the ground he's been down about not being able to snowboard. I liken it to how surfers get with no waves. Biking to work takes his mind off the lack of snow.
A good bike headlight can be priced at around $400-$500. Tom found some do-it-yourself instructions on the web, and made himself a pretty powerfull front headlight and rear-red light. We also just recently found his safety reflective vest, so he will be very visible to the other morning communters (deer included!).
One thing he was able to do with the warm weather was to clean all the road salt of his bike. Now if we could get some snow that will stick we will all be tickled :-).
