I learned how to pack my work clothes in a backpack, shower and change at the health club next door, and walk into work fresh and ready to do my job. Over the next year, that riding toned my body and left me feeling better than I had in a long time. If you are facing life without a car, let's talk about bikes. I'm betting you will find them a good alternative too.
