bicycle commuting in ohio?

i would really like to start commuting to work with my bike, but i have quite a few questions. please answer what you can. thanks!

I use a standard rear rack (TransIt about $14.00) and fenders (not too necessary in L.A.). I use a rack trunk everyday (lunch, tools etc) plus one of the panniers at the beginning of the week (for clothes to work) and at the end of the week (bring dirty clothes home). I ride 20 miles each way from La Habra to Los Angeles, about 1.5 hours each way. It takes some getting used to, riding with traffic. Use a mirror, but always verify by looking behind before changing lanes. Signal your intensions. Try to be courteous to those in automobiles- you will have to deal with the same people in cars everyday, but don’t be pushed too close to the curb/gutter. Wear bright refective clothing and have lights/refectors. Remember certain times of the year the sun will be in the driver’s eyes and they may not be able to see you (especially left turning cars). Read all you can on safe cycling.

Bike $14.61 Rated: NRSynopsis: Two filmmakers’ infiltrate an exclusive underground bicycle club. Driven by anti-materialism and a belief that the impending apocalypse will render cars useless and leave bicycles in power, Black Label Bike Club (BLBC) battles mainstream consumer culture and rival gangs for its vision of a better tomorrow. Pulling threads from Critical Mass and the wider bike counterculture, B.I.K.E. explores such themes as radical politics, personal artistic vision, global responsibility, relationships, group formation, and perhaps most prominently, pain and love. Co-directors, Jacob Septimus and Anthony Howard follow the Brooklyn chapter of BLBC for over two years to meetings, parties, jousts, gatherings of the tribes in Amsterdam and Minneapolis, and the protests of the 2004 Republican National Convention to create their masterpiece. This fascinating and gorgeously gritty film provides insight into a passionate subculture, and exposes the darker aspects of living on the wild side. Edited from over 385 hours of footage for over 2 years Fountainhead Films presents B.I.K.E., a riveting look into the ways in which identity is important for a collective of fiercely independent people.

Beijing Bicycle $25.46 Wang Xiaoshuai’s moving, emotional BEIJING BICYCLE tells the story of a young country boy, Guei (Cui Lin), who comes to the big city determined to make it. He soon finds a job as a bike messenger in which he gets a small percentage of each delivery, working hard to build up enough credit to eventually own the bike for himself. As he grows closer to his goal, the bike is stolen and ultimately winds up in the hands of Jian (Li Bin), a poor city boy who sees the bike as his only way to make friends and impress the girl he loves. With both boys claiming the bike is theirs, a series of fights ensues over what is more than just a bike–it has become a symbol of success, power, and greed in a changing country.Lin and Bin are excellent as the two boys battling over the bike; it is heartbreaking to watch Lin keep a tight hold of the bike even as Bin and his friends beat him senseless. Cinematographer Lui Jie depicts a very different China, one that is filled with dangerous, meandering alleys and frightening poverty. The film, almost devoid of color save for a young woman’s red dress and shoes, is reminiscent of Vittori De Sica’s BICYCLE THIEF and Peter Yates’s BREAKING AWAY; the freedom the bicycle represents overwhelms both young boys as they risk their lives to hold on to it. The film won a Silver Berlin Bear for its honest, gritty, heartfelt depiction of a Beijing that is not often seen in the West.
