How do you usually go to your office?
I usually go to office by road bike.
The distance between my home and office is 8km, and It takes about 30 minutes to go to office. It take the same 30 minutes when commuting by train.

Still, I recommend you to use a bicycles for commuting.
The reasons are described below.

1. It’s good exercise

Commuting on the bicycle requires your physical strength more than you imagine. This is a good habit because office workers have few opportunities to sweat and exercise.

2. You don’t have to take a crowded train

Taking a crowded train every day takes a toll on your mental health consumes, because it forces you into a tight, confined space.

3. You have the opportunity to change your mind

You can go to your office on a different route every day.
Seeing different landscapes every day gives you a good refreshment.

For the reasons above, I recommend commuting by bicycle.
By the way, if you decide to commute by bike and need to buy a bike, a road bike is a good choice.
