I am going to bike commute to the train station today, I just looked at the temperature outside and it is a little chilly 30F. The ride to the station is 11 miles round trip. Riding my commuting bike it takes about 20 to 25 minutes which is not to bad unless the temperature drops into the 20's or below. The bike I use for my short commute is a Novara Transfer 2006 model that I bought from REI. One of the main reasons I purchased this bike is it has a Shimano Nexus internally geared 7-speed rear hub. I don't like to do lot's of maintenance on a commuting bike so I thought this would be the way to go. I have to say after a year of riding not every day but through last winter I have not had to do much maintenance at all and the shifting works fine. Here is a picture of what the bike looks like.
