Well I do have a 650cc but for years commuted by my 125cc scooter from east Dulwich to Westminster. Really easy, cheap and quick. But since January I have been on an electrically assisted bike. It's been fantastic. I'm over 60 and over weight but I feel so much better with the daily exercise. It makes Denmark Hill easy and it only takes 20 minutes. I still go in by scooter if it's raining too much. Highly recommend the bike.
