5 years of commuting today

Today is my 5th anniversary of bike commuting. I started out riding once a week, on dress-down Fridays and soon was riding 2, 3, 4 and sometimes 5 days a week. My original commute was 22 miles round trip but has increased to 30 miles with my office moving to a new location last fall. Here are a few stats:

- 18,421 total miles commuting since April 2007
- 789 commute trips
- 921 gallons of gasoline saved
- 10.36 tons of CO2 prevented
