Bromsgrove is even easier.
Use the train to Droitwich to halve the distance to begin with.
If he wants to only do it one way, the 144 bus takes him home from Bromsgrove to Worcester.
Anyone who can run 13 miles do a seven mile one way commute.
Rather than advising on the type of bike to get, it's probably more practical to advise him on how to carry luggage and decent locks on the bike. Panniers ftw.
