@ayush, our driver has the same frame and fork like the one in the pictures.. i promise you, you'd regret buying that for the rest of your life... when our driver left, hw left his bike with us and i had the chance to use it... okay so it's comfortable and usable for about 5 months and so and after that.. the bike self destructs! the spring on the fork locked and stopped bouncing, the whole frame and fork got rusty, and the rear connecting joint of the rear armbar and the main frame of the chassis is very very jerky, when i turn into a curve, it literally bends because of the arm bar joint thingy and believe me, you cant get a replacement part for that so i bet buying a non suspensioned bike is better...

I have a Scorpio road bike. It's not expensive but is good quality.
It has alloy frame and 24 speed gears. I don't ride nearly as much as I should these days.
Previously I had a Bauer Razor RSX 14 speed road bike, bought in 97. At the time I was cycling to and from work (12.5 kms each way) and got quite fit.
I started entering 100km social races in my region and my best time was 2h 55m 51s. I like the challenge of travelling distance.

I too used to ride to work everyday, weather permitting. 35km round trip. Bought a 2001 Avanti Hustler which was dual suspension. 4 inches front and rear travel, 27 speed deore/lx level. Very smooth and effortless ride.
Out riding one day i had a very large crash and cracked the frame in three places. Unfortunately this happened 1 week out of warranty. Gutted! Have now since moved up to bigger and better bike. Got a 1998 honda xr250r enduro motorbike. 10.5 inches front and back and lots of power. Much fun!

You can wear whatever you like! I have seen people riding wearing suits but thats for me. A pair of shorts and t-shirt does the job. For colder weather a jacket and my groundeffects pants from New Zealand are good. I would ride on road and cycle track, 50mins to work and 1hour 15mins home. Motorbike alot quicker thou.
