I drive 1.5 miles in a mostly straight line. lol. I've had the car for 7 months now and only have 2700 miles on it.

Let's see. I get up in the morning, make a pot of coffee and then walk about 20 feet to my office. Unless I am headed to the airport or the work office - which are both about 20 miles one way.

22.5 miles. As long as I time it right, its a 30 min commute, and I couldn't ask for a better one. The long straight middle part is quite pretty (mountains and lakes on one-side, few visible houses) and the traffic is rarely bad (well, rarely CA bad), the squiggly part at the top is awesome, especially at ~55-60, whether going up or down hill.

Haha I remember when I used to ride Metro. It's nice being able to read/relax in the mornings, but driving is fun too.

Ohh how lucky I am to have to drive 45 min to work in the middle of the night, all on curvy northern ontario roads

Since getting this car, I drive this route:

When I COULD be driving this:

Why? Because of substantial elevation changes, more turns, etc. Much fun.

I just graduated in May, I'm full time employed (read: townie) in Blacksburg so I live a little bit beyond Foxridge.

And I thought I was the only one that had to bare that crap of a thing they call the highway.

Mostly forest with a few farms between a town of 14,000 and another of 31,000.
