      <title>Commuting by bicycle in Wellington</title>
      <link>http://cyclingwellington.co.nz/2015/03/commuting-by-bicycle-in-wellington/</link>
      <description>In the past few years the number of people I see on bikes riding from Newtown to town in the morning has literally quadrupled. Unfortunately, many of the people I see stopped at the lights are on seriously terrible bikes.&#xD;
I’m see rusty, too-big or too-small mountain bikes with brakes that barely work and people look unconfident and uncomfortable on their bikes. Riding the wrong bike can actually make cycling seriously not fun.&#xD;
Recently several of my colleagues have gotten bicycles with the intention of cycling to work. I have noticed that they too seem to have missed some items that to me are essential for bike commuting.&#xD;
