Really? Either you have a totally wonderful commute . . . or you don't get out much. I enjoy my commute okay, but there are lots of cars and trucks to deal with, traffic lights and stop signs. I do it, and it's quite do-able, but I much prefer:
1. Riding my road bike up on the mountain roads, centuries or double centuries.
2. Riding my mountain bike on fire roads and single-track
3. Riding my fixed gear bike on MUP's other flat-land areas
4. Riding my touring bike almost anywhere (except the city)
I do commute to work by bicycle because I think it's the best way to transport my self from home to work and back . . . but it's for sure not the most enjoyable of my riding miles/hours.
