I'm not happy that it takes me 65 or 70 minutes each way, but I'm happy that I have two nice modes of commuting, and neither is with a car. I can ride my bike along the Hudson River Greenway, which has gorgeous views and is low-stress, since it is motor-free. Or I can take the subway and get a chance to do lots of reading.
The commute options were actually a factor in our decision to move from suburban New Jersey back into New York City. The City is actually a good, though far from perfect, place to ride a bike.
