Traffic is bad on the commute home by car that is why I try not to drive sometimes I can beat my time home by 5 minutes. Time by car averages between 15- 25 minutes. Time by bike can average between 18 and 22 minutes depending on wind and weather. So to me its almost a wash for time. So I turn to the best thing and that's what I get out of it. Better health, outlook and save enough to by bike stuff. I win!
