    My commute is almost exactly 52 mins, just call me mister average! My Car commute used to be about 40-odds. Even on days like this i can tell you where i'd rather be.

  3. I'm around 30 minutes getting to work, and 15-25 going home (depending on the route). Car would take... Probably about 30 minutes...

    27-28 minutes in both directions. I do not understand this since the ride into work mainly consists of a huge slog uphill whereas the ride home mainly consists of downhillness. Still, it IS easier.

    The whole epic train/car thing makes me feel a bit queasy.

    I was in London two weeks ago, bike was in the roof box which was so stinking hot it cause a tyre to pop and lipstick to melt. Anywho I was reminded how I used to feel when I lived there and wondered again why people would put up with London commutes. The subway is just horrible at rush hour and the traffic is slower than molasses in January. The locals don't seem to notice. I used a bike from Kilburn to Kensington in those days. Bromptons were just starting to appear.
