I do my biking exercise almost daily but I have a special admiration to those who do it for commuting.

Pretty impressive how you can change watches while riding and take pictures. Ha!

3 great watches and beautiful pics. Congrats!

I'm also bike commuting a lot more these days, often with my Rolex. It has been really great to see 10x more cyclists on the road the last few months around where I live. Families, commuters, shoppers. Hope the trend continues.

Love the Daytona! Probably the only one I’d consider as it is one of the more legible examples. I’ve been biking everyday for 26 years, rain or shine - love it!

Legibility is good even for sub dials. And this configuration made me appreciate YG.

To be honest, the photo looks so incredible that it literally looks quite professional. And, btw, the watch looks stunning as well.

I have been living in Copenhagen the past few years and I know what you mean. Everybody rides their bike to work here. But still, I believe being committed to daily exercise (almost) is something to look upon!

You live in a especial city / country. Love Scandinavian countries. Enjoy :-)

I live in a semi-rural area about 40 miles from Detroit. The local towns and suburban areas are for the most part not really bicycle friendly or at all suitable for commuting but there are a few good options for recreational riding. And of course we like our cars around here as they are part of the local heritage and culture.

If we see someone biking to work around here its generally (and yes, unfairly) assumed they were convicted of drunken driving and lost his license.

You’re brave - I would never wear any of my watches when cycling, only my Fitbit.
