How long will it take you to bicycle to work and will the type of bike make much difference in the commute?
Interesting ... the car is really extra and will sit roughly 1 month between uses.
Car w/traffic is roughly 20mins
Bus + walking from stop is roughly 30 mins
Directly walking (roughly 5.5 miles) is roughly 70 mins.
Bike is roughly 20-25 mins ... still optimising but should be around 20 mins.
