Well if you commuted 30 minutes (or better yet an hour) each way, you'd have no reason to go to the gym
My commute is 17 miles (1:15 minutes, more or less) each way. I try to do it 3 or 4 days per week in the summer (less in the winter). Since it can easily take 45 minutes (and frequently take an hour) to drive the route, I'm really not giving up that much time. Besides, I'd much rather be on the bike than in the car.
