Hi c3hamby,

I can take public transit, but it doesn't go directly there, and I end up having a 3 hour bus ride. I'd much rather the 1:20 - 2hr bike ride.

And I don't think it takes up a lot of my time. Let's say it takes 2 hours each way. Well it will be early morning, time I would just be sleeping anyways, and after dinner. Most of my work is done during the day at school, and I use the time at night to relax. I think a nice 35km ride would be relaxing. And I'm not having to spend any of my time at a gym etc.


The way I look at it, the question is what do I value more, money or time?

In my case, i could buy a vehicle, put up the $600/mo insurance, parking fees, gas, oil changes etc. And I would get there in about 40 minutes. And still be out of shape.

Or I could go the bicycle route, take twice as long, but save the money. Your actually the first I've talked to who thought it was really long, but you might just be hung up on time.
