Jake Mohan takes a look at the group of cyclists typically ignored by most media: those who “ride bikes not because it’s cool or healthy, but because it’s the most efficient, cost-effective option when cars and public transit are off the table.” Looking for more bike coverage?

And although you may not be interested in biking a bike now as our daylight continues to fade, our staff-written guide on buying a bike is full of info to tuck away through winter.
