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

ive never measured my commute, but its from south Bristol to the beginings of north Bristol, so about 1.5 to 2 miles. 5 days a week, there and back. as for seeing people on my commute, its all taxi drivers (and later night/early morning clubbers on a sat morning) as im a postie, do get to ride a post bike up a hill as well, so as to get to first delivery point. so i reckon 20 miles in total all week.

sounds like a breakfast picnic in richmond park might be fairly well attended, and it would give TR a decent workout

10 miles each way for me most days. I've gone back to the road recently as the cycle path (an old rail line) shakes my bones too much and dont get me started on the broken glass, dog walkers, hoodies....
despite the road adding another mile to the journey its still quicker as the surface allows me to ride a gear higher.

5 miles each way. Every day. Quicker than any other form of transport (car included).

Boring and has no discernible fitness benefit. I should head off in the opposite direction more often....

About 11 miles each way 3- 4 times a week. Mostly fairly flat (up and down a bit of the A6) as I live out on the edge of the Lancashire Fylde and work in Preston. Not a bad ride but often a killer wind usually coming off the Irish Sea.

My colleague cycles a similar distance in from Blackburn. His route is almost the opposite direction to mine (compass wise) so usually when I get in to work knackered with a head wind all the way, he arrives like a rocket! I then pray that the wind doesn't change direction during the day.

Damn we've run out, but we will be taking orders soon for another batch at a new recession-busting price!

My commute pretty much the same as Dave 'cept he lives a bit higher up the hill. I try to go home at lunchtime just to up the mileage and stop me getting fat

y'all should say hello to one another when you're riding through richmond park

12 miles each way, five days a week, all year.

So far in 2009 I've used my car to commute twice. I had pulled a muscle in my calf, and wanted it to recover by the weekend when I had a ride planned!

Mon & Fri 18.5 miles each way

Tues, Thurs workbound = 13.75 miles, home bound = 18.5 miles

Wed = 8.5 miles each way (plus MTB night ride = 17 miles)

All commuting done on a SS Tricross running 45/16 gearing.

17 each way for me, 3 times a week now the weather's improved - surbiton to tower hill via richmong park, putney, clapham, waterloo, london bridge.

North bank on the way home - some good views...

13 miles each way. Quicker than by public transport + view lovely sights thru Richmond Park. Keeps me fit and, hopefully, trim too!

Just over 2 miles currently, it will be further from my new house in August.

8 miles in, 7 miles home, although there are various routes to combat boredom, my Tuesday evening route home is 14 miles and takes in Fulham, Richmomd Park and Twickenham...

Starts in Isleworth and ends in White City...

13 miles each way currently.

ride every day 'cept for when it's icy.

10 miles each way for me, doing it 4-5 times a week. Quicker over exactly the same route than on a Vespa.

Mine's about 7 on the way to work and 5.5 on the way back..
Frequency? That depends on what's happening in the office, I try for three times in a week.

I'm doing 13 miles each way/day. Great route through richmond park, then hustling the traffic around the Kings rd, Buck palace and traffalgar sq.

9 miles each way. Only do it three times a week though.....and only for another 2 weeks as im moving house.

Just over 2 miles each way, all downhill on the way in and all uphill on the way back

that's not very far, is it? I did do it on an Africabike for a while though, which is the equivalent of multiplying the distance by about five

still, with the first reply, i'm in the lead for now...
