Yesterday's commutes added up to 32 miles. The church I work for has multiple locations, so I've been peppering in some bike commutes to the newest campus. But that campus is a 20 mile ride from my house. So the mileage is starting to add up. Home to Campus A, Campus A to Campus B, and Campus B to home would be a total of 40+ miles. But Mondays are my day to drive the boy to school
and work at the other campus. So that probably won't happen much. But, like yesterday, I'll bring my bike on the car and ride after I take him in. I'm loving the extra miles!
Get out there.
It's good to mix it up and get in some unconventional commutes though. People thought I was crazy when I planned on riding home from work on Good Friday (half day), but it was basically just a fun 50 mile ride after work. It just so happened I got a shuttle that morning. One of these days I'll figure out a way to commute to and from work in a single day.
ReplyDelete100 mile commute would fall under the category of "epic." I say go for it.
DeleteI used to commute back in my working days. It was part drive and part bike. 30/10 each way. Having different places to leave my car allowed me to commute year round. It was mostly 10 miles each way, but there were also longer and shorter options.
ReplyDeleteCheck out your area. Your commute doesn't have to be all bike.
I've considered taking the bus a lot. It would eliminate the campus to campus riding if I took public transit. Unfortunately, it doesn't make it much faster.
