13 miles is a great commute! I commute 8 miles one way from Sterling to Hernon. Half of that is the WO&D - a great trail. I'm envious of your commute because I've been ill for a couple months and have had to drive most days recently. Today was glorious weather for commuting - I hope yours went well.
Cyclocross bikes are versatile and yours looks great for your commute. Enjoy your rides and make sure you get a good blinky or two, some reflective tape, and a good light. I recently got a magicshine LED and found it a good addition to my lighting collection.
