Cycling is a way to break oil addiction

With gas prices over $4 a gallon, you'd think I'd be sweating my daily commute from West Hollywood to Encino.

Workers who do not have access to a safe route to work or live too far to bike to work should consider working out of a remote office. Remote Office Centers lease offices, internet access and phone systems to workers from multiple companies in shared centers located around the suburbs. There is a free web site for workers who are interested in finding Remote Office Center:

Biking to work is good for health, the economy and your wallet. Working remotely makes it possible for a lot more people to take advantage of this very fuel efficient method of commuting.

I still believe that I would rather be in a car when I get hit than on a bike. The odds of being involved in an accident are to high for me to ride a bike with car traffic. That's insane.

I actually ride a motorcycle to work every day (48mpg). I will admit it is not as safe as a car, but I drive back roads to work and drive pretty cautiously. It is really fun, besides being fuel efficient. I do wish that other drivers would pay more attention to bike and motorcycles.
