how far do you commute?

[fuji-stu]

15 mile there 15 back but there are two 25% hills in it and I have to set off at 0540 to get there at 0640 start work at 7

cracking views though!!

8 miles if I go on the cycle path, 6 if I go on the road.

24 miles each way - don't do it everyday though.

3.5 miles each way. I sometimes take a longer route if the weather is nice but 13.5 hr shifts means this is rare. The benefit of long shifts though is I only do 3 per week so I can go for some nice scenic riding on other days!

Hawkesley to Redditch is 7.5 miles if I go direct. 8 miles if I avoid Wast Hill Lane. 8.9 miles via Icknield Street if I really fancy a traffic free ride. About the right distance for me as a relative newbie. Long enough to savour and enjoy, short enough not to be a chore.

8.5 miles each way. But 70+ traffic lights and pedestrian crossings. That's commuting in London... particularly if you actually stop at red lights as I do.

i tend to think of it as interval training

I'm currently doing 6miles each way, but looks like my jobs changing on October first so it will be a 20mile route each way, but won't be able to ride everyday

 

[subaqua]

last few weks on new job its been the 8.5 to 9 mile each way, thats going to increase shortly as i find longer routes

 

[Edwards80]

Just over 20 miles each day, every day 25 miles on the way home if the weather is inviting!

I've got a pretty short commute at the moment, less than 4 miles round. It gives me time to get home and get changed for a proper ride

 

[Hip Priest]

Mine is a 10 mile round trip. Just right, for me.

 

[lb81]

36 - 40 mile round trip depending on route...

 

[Jefferson Meriwether]

6 mile round trip for me at the moment which is a bit too short for my liking. I do sometimes extend the journey home a bit. The only upside to my short commute is that none of it is on main roads.

 

[jefmcg]

43 km round trip. Haven't counted the number of lights. Or the number of cyclists. Or the number of cyclists who RLJ

(~27 miles)

I have a 32 mile round trip when I cycle in.
