It's 15 miles 1-way home to office. When I first started biking, I set out to ride home to bus-stop and use the bus' bike rack into town. It's 3 miles from my house to a stop. The bus would drop me off about a half mile from my office.
It works fine, I still use it when the weather is bad. However, I enjoyed biking so much that I started extending the ride, at first on my home side, riding a bit farther to the next stop, then further to a park-n-ride location. Then, i started getting off the bus sooner extending the ride downtown.
Last week I rode the bike all the way in 4 days, all the way home 3.
