Habitually, I'd answer without a second thought, I do it for fun. But after that many commutes, yeah sometimes I'm just getting to work. A little bit of both.
For me, I think its: Feel good keeping in shape, like to bike, avoid bus/train issues, meet other cycling peeps, get to work.

It was another really nice ride into work from home today. Nice and cool at ~70F. My left crankarm started creaking more this morning. It just needs to be removed and cleaned. I also put some blue locktite on the crank bolts. But they still seem to come loose after a day or two. I also think I have more issues with this Token BB (as opposed to the Campy BB). The crank bolt is missing a washer on the token one so that might help explain the boot loosening.
