I'm a bike commuter as well and I love it. Been doing it for about 9 years now. The first 2 years it was a 40 minute bike ride each way. After that I got another job and moved which resulted in a 15 minute ride each way.
Funny thing is I kind of miss the longer commute. Sometimes after work I will take an extra 30 minutes on my bike by taking the long way home. How many times do you hear a car commuter say that?
- bmj 15y agoMy commute has been ~30 minutes each way for the last five years. Seems like a perfect distance. Previously, I had a 20+ mile commute (each way), which I did three days a week. That was not ideal.
- goatforce5 15y agoMy current door-to-door commute is about 10 minutes. Most of that is spent waiting for elevators. I'm often late, strangely enough. Previously I had a 30 minute each way commute by bike, with most of it along a river. I really miss that commute. Watching the seasons change, the different critters come and go, riding faster than the commuters stuck in traffic and feeling really 'connected' to the city. And 2-3 times a week i'd take a longer way home just to get a little more enjoyment out of the commute.
