I used to work a mile from my house. Problem was, my daycare was 6 or 8 miles :/ . Most of high school, I walked or rode a bike 2.5 miles, carried a bunch of books either way. Unless you're severely malnourished, your body adapts pretty quickly, growing, conditioning and training muscles as required. Nothing is as heavy hard or as far as it seemed in the beginning. Unless you're dealing with rain or snow, weather in the 30's is no fright to bike in, a pair of ski gloves or nice work gloves with thermal liners will help. I think you have an opportunity to be awake, alert, and have a smile when you get to work and get home. Having a bike that fits you and the way you ride is the best way make it a comfortable efficient way to get around.

Heads up, and wear a helmet, trouser clips or just keep the nice ones at work.
