bike commute

Two-wheeled work trip

A bike commute is the regular journey to and from work by bicycle.

The term emphasizes routine transportation rather than recreational cycling: My bike commute takes about twenty minutes each way.

Someone who bike commutes is a bike commuter.

The practice has grown with urban cycling infrastructure and environmental awareness.
