How far do you commute to work (by bike)?

13 miles each way 5 days a week, except for on call weekends which makes it 12 days in a row Torrance to Gartnavel Gen Hosp.

22 and 18m each way; about 3x a week. Fantastic for base fitness and weight loss. I’m up in the Scottish Borders and the biggest dangers are gravel after heavy rains, horse and cow sh1t (have the scars to prove it) and spooking deer by the side of the road.
More people cycling in the office recently so I’m not the only one mincing about in cleats and lycra. So far this year have remembered underwear everyday – no white sports socks with work suit or going commando.
Days are getting shorter so will soon switch to MTB rig with tons of lights on the front.

Around five miles each way
Around five miles each way for me, 1 mile thru’ a housing estate, then nice country lanes the rest. I do this 5 days a week, some days I go a longer way round, depending on my finish time and the weather. I have been known to do 40 miles home on occasion!(very understanding mrs) Dinner’s in the microwave! 😉

18m each way 3 or4 times a
18m each way 3 or4 times a week. Would like to try 5 a week (like my veg) but come Friday either bike or I am knackered! Surbiton – Richmond Pk – Putney – Kings Rd – Embankment – Meat Market – Islington although sometimes do the return on the South Bank alongside Festival Hall if the traffic from Blackfriars is chocca. Early doors is the best bet otherwise you run the risk of the heavy commuter traffic from Putney. Anyone had experiences re mobile bike servicing? Used BikeADE a couple of times – very good and economical and come to your office – a new shop Mend-a-bike has sprung up near Putney – think I might look at them for on the fly repairs – any experiences here?
Howabout bike models – am on an old Trek SU300 which is on last legs – I reckon road bikes are too fragile for me – looking for a ‘long fast rider’ – suggestions welcome!
