If your bike breaks down, they'll pick you up and drive you up to 30 miles. Better World Club is a roadside assistance club like AAA, but they offer bike coverage.

We recently started riding our bikes to work (again - first time post baby). These are very good tips. My commute could be shorter, but as it is, it's safer because I'm on a bike path most of the way (vs. riding on the roads). Our commutes are 11-12 miles one way. I used to do the round trip (24 miles) once or twice a week. Now we bike 2x a week, but we each only bike half, and swap the car in between. (We have different work schedules.) Great article!

You could always drive part-way to a public parking lot and ride the rest. Most people I have talked to have bike commutes that are between 3 and 10 miles each way. 26 miles is a bit long, but I’ve read of people doing that or longer.

I'm a little apprehensive about it because it's a 26-mile round trip commute. That seems like a lot to me; I'd love to know what the average commute is for bikers.
