My commute is 100 miles round trip! :p

Okay, it I confess, I don't ride the entire distance. I catch a train that takes me most of the way. The distance between train stations and my destinations add up to 14 miles round trip.

I've heard this is called multimodal commuting. I ride my bike to the train station, hop on the train with my bike, and continue riding to the office when I get off the train. You should have seen the looks of my coworkers when I rode in the first time. They seriously thought I rode all 50 miles.
