Thinking about biking to work and wanted to get some opinions. I attached a pic of the ride from work back home—it’s about 2.3 miles and usually takes me around 15 minutes. Not super far, but the return trip has a pretty decent incline (you can see it in the photo). The journey to work is all downhill or flat which is nice.
I’d only be doing this commute 3 times a week. I’m not a hardcore cyclist, just average fitness. Wondering: • Is this doable on a regular bike without dying every time? • Would an e-bike make a big difference or is it overkill for this distance? • Will I end up super sweaty on the way back?
Trying to figure out if it’s worth going electric or just sticking with a normal bike. Thanks
