Satellite city of Boston Everyone has their own levels of comfort with cycling in traffic. I started over 30 years ago when the idea of cycling specific infrastructure wasn't even really a thing, so I'm pretty comfortable in all kinds of situations. That said, I do feel a difference the last few years. More aggression? More distracted drivers? IDK
Be safe!
I just go for hard rides from my house and end at my workplace. Today I did a big trail loop just outside of town, then headed into town from the end of the trail and ended at work, and there you go.
don't have changing facilities/showers etc at current work. Used to have it, but always did training rides on way home
Fair. I work from afternoon into night, so after is a much dicier proposition for me. As long as I get in with some time to spare, I can dry off and deodorize before I do anything, but if I got off work with daylight to spare then afterwards would make a lot more sense.
