Ditto. Google maps comes up with 43 to 46 miles each way for bike-friendly paths. I'd have to bike through the city, and I'm guessing 4+ hours, all said and done, each way. HTFU indeed.
I've thought of doing it though, like on employee appreciation day, or bike to work day (did that come yet this year?).
On the good side, I typically do rides at home where I can go for an hour and not unclip. I think last weekend I did a 90 minute ride without ever unclipping. Quiet roads, quiet life, etc.

I see the humor in the cartoon. It's in the same vein as people driving to the gym to ride the exercise bike. [Of course there can be valid reasons to do so, but there's irony there for most people who do so.]
