I work 1.8 miles away and I'm thinking about just walking. I don't ride my bike in bad weather for a few reasons but mostly being cold & slippery in the rain. I also have to deal with taking it in the office. Nobody cares in my office but sometimes the elevator can be crowded in the morning. If I walk, I can keep warm and it's probably more exercise. The bike ride gets too cold with the wind-chill factor. To replace this, I may get a light-weight skateboard. Technically, they are not legal on the sidewalk or street but as long as you are being considerate, I've never heard of anyone getting stopped. The skateboard will also take less space in my condo.
Does anyone know anything about skateboards for commuting purposes? Looking for light-weight because I'll probably carry it home. It's downhill almost all the way to work but uphill on the way back.
Thanks.
