So adding an additional 30 mins isn't too bad, today my second day I noticed that if I pace right and take the right lanes I can make it back within 50 mins. Which I think is pretty good, so far I haven't ran into heavy traffic so maybe I'll be lucky and not have that at all in the future.

I've commuted 45-60 minutes all my life. Moved recently and I now "commute" 3.5km to work. I'm buying a bicycle in the spring.

This may hurt a bit...

Damn. The rumor must be true if it comes from you too. I heard the same thing
