I haven't ridden a bike in years but really want to start commuting into work by cycling. It would be an 8 mile journey there and back (16 mile round journey). For one I don't know if that sounds less than it is and wonder if I could even manage that kind of distance (Im reasonably fit I swim 1000m in 30 minutes Monday - Friday)?
The main thing that is stopping me right now is the fear of riding on the roads - I used to ride a scooter for a couple of years but feel that one would be alot more vulnerable on a bike?
Please could anyone that rides share your experiences give me some advice as I would really like to start doing this but just don't know if its possible? Any questions please ask so I can elaborate and I'll add/edit to the question
Many thanks
