There actually are many bicycle commuters out there, and some of them have been doing this for a long time. As a pleasant result, there is a pretty broad base of information on the subject. Much of this is available in the form of blogs published by these commuters, who are happy to pass their own experiences on to others who may find them helpful. Here are links to a few of the better blogs. With a little effort, I'm sure you can find many more on your own.
