Today is National Fitness Day which celebrates health and fitness. Why not take the plunge and commit to cycling to work, when you can. It doesn't have to be an everyday pledge, just cycle when you can. Most commutes are classed as short journeys of under 5 miles which, in most cases, is easily cycled. If you're new to cycling or lack confidence, try an ebike which can make the journey easier by making those hills and distances disappear. When you use the Cycle to Work Scheme you'll save between 28 - 47% on any type of bike. Through the scheme, you can spread payments over 3 to 60 months to make it an affordable and manageable investment.
