This is easily solved. I assume you're driving those 62 miles to work. So put a bike rack on the car, drive the bike to work, ride at lunch, and drive it home. Also if the job is in an area with nice riding, you can ride there after work, then drive home.
OR
If you want, you can drive to someplace short of work, finish by bike, then reverse the process at the end of the day.
IMO- it isn't about whether you're bike commuting, but about getting some riding in if you want.
