When I commuted last year I tried to keep it slow as possible. I found myself going quicker naturally somehow, but without the sweat and breathlessness of trying to keep up the speed.
Enjoyed it tbh, ended up being round about the speed Google Maps assumes a cyclist to be which is handy as it helped when planning new cycle journeys.
It's great not worrying about traffic jams or parking! Sometimes when driving there's bizzare out of nowhere traffic, then when I do get to uni a full car park meaning it takes ages to scour the local streets to find a gap outside a local house which is an extra crappy walk in general! Can't beat the bike!
