3. Plan Your Route

If you've never cycled to work before, consider testing out your route options on a weekend before your first commute. Do a dry run on different routes to find the one that is most comfortable or takes you the least time to get there. You can ask for some tips from a fellow colleague who commutes by bike or use Strava Heat Maps as a reference for your route. Depending on how busy the roads in your area are, commuting to work on an e-bike can significantly cut down your commute time.

4. Be Prepared

While you may have your bike, gear, and route all planned out, there are a couple of other things that you still need to consider. Though the STEPS battery has a range of up to 50 miles per single charge, you need to ensure that you fully charge your battery the night before. Also, since you'll need somewhere to park your bike once you get to work, check with your employer to find out whether they have storage options for bicycles. You may want to invest in a quality bicycle lock to keep your bicycle safe and secure.

5. Stay Safe on the Road

Lastly, you need to have a clear understanding of the rules of the road and your specific responsibilities as a cyclist. For example, having functional bike lights will ensure you stay visible to motorists whether at dusk or dawn.
