Regular exercise is the best way of keeping you healthy and cycling to work can provide this on a sustainable basis for the many health benefits that you can get from a little bit on an ‘everyday’ basis.

By cycling to work, you improve your cardio vascular fitness, get your joints and muscles working, produce ‘happy hormones’ for a better frame of mind and, for many people, reduce the cost of commuting. It really is a no brainier and one that provides a win win scenario.

Our advice when cycling to work:

1. Choose less busy roads and use back streets for your bike journey.

2. Use Hi-Visibility clothing, as this is what drivers will see, otherwise they will not see you or the tiny little light you may have on the front or rear of your bike.

3. Despite more electric vehicles being used, there are still millions of diesel and petrol vehicles polluting the air that you breathe. Use some form of respiratory protection to protect your lungs and make a statement ‘Clean Air for All’.

To beat the smog on your commute or ride, make sure to use an Urban™ filter in your mask.
