I guess I'm in the minority... I ride 15 minutes to downtown and take the bus to my work (direct route via the interstate, express bus) and get there a good bit faster than I would if I just biked the whole way.
Biking: 1hr 15-25 mins.
Bus: 30 mins + 15 minute ride.
Plus our buses only cost $1 and have bike racks. I don't ride the bus everyday. I just take the bus when I'm feeling lazy.

Now, taking the non-express bus? That's about a tie as far as time goes. I can make it from my house to our mall out west (endpoint for most of the westbound routes) in about the same amount of time as the buses.
