My dc is 42.2 miles rt. Gets to be a grind sometimes, so I just take a day off now and then. Use a 2 bike system. Multi-geared, loaded w/clothing and food for the week on Mondays and ride a fg w/a seatpost rack/trunkbag combo the rest of the week. Bring food containers and clothing home daily as the tb is expandible. Workable system.
