I try to keep up with all the great cycling posts over on Spacing Toronto, and this one caught my eye, not only because it continues Spacing's great series of cyclist profiles, but it's on another person I know - "Leehe the personal trainer", who I met at the Bicycle Friendly Business Awards in the fall (it's always nice to meet BikingToronto readers):

How long have you been commuting by bicycle and what made you decide to start?
I’ve been commuting most of my adult life. I started because I like cycling and the freedom that comes with it.

What would you say to convince someone who is considering commuting by bicycle to go for it?
It’s cheaper than TTC and driving. It keeps you in shape and, most importantly, it’s one less car on the streets!

When did you start commuting in winter and why?
I’ve always commuted in the winter if there wasn’t snow. I started riding through snow our winters ago. I gave it a try, overcame my fears that try and it’s been all weather riding from there.
