Hi everyone

I'm a mum looking to commute to work by bike to cut down on car use.
Hoping to get some ideas and advice :)
Hi, how far will your commute be and what's your budget and vital statistics please? :D

Height and weight helps people to choose the right bike for you. Welcome aboard. :)

Useful also to know if you live in a very hilly area or not

And also welcome ! :)

Wiltshire..
Hi again, sorry I didn't see the replies earlier but thanks for the welcome :)
Yes - hills are pretty common around here! I'm 5'9" of average build and not a regular cyclist, although hoping that the extra help will make my commute possible - it's 6 miles each way, a few days a week
Budget started at about 1000 but now I realise that won't go far I have settled at about 1200. One make I have tried is a Wisper but saw a review for a Woosh which also looked good... so many choices!!! I want a robust enough bike to last me through the winter and tackle the hills around here. Cheers Em

Take a trip to E-Motion in Swindon. They have a good range of bikes to try and lots of experience.
