Cycling to work just twice a week at H2 works out as follows:
Zone 1-2 Commuter – H2 membership and Oyster Top Up cost is £99.79 a month versus £112.20 for a monthly travelcard.
Zone 1-3 Commuter – H2 membership and Oyster Top Up cost is £109.39 a month versus £131.40 for a monthly travelcard.
Factor in that you are cycling to and from work and burning calories a minimum of twice a week, this is an average of two hours regular exercise a week. Best of all you are doing all your exercise whilst on the way to and from work so that getting fit doesn't cut into your valuable free time. Weekends become freer and you don’t have to worry about not having been to the gym. Add in the fact that you no longer need your gym membership as H2 has a gym (and Pilates, TRX, Boxercise and Cross Fit classes) and a dedicated spinning studio and you can save yourself your gym membership of £50+ a month by joining H2.
