Likewise for me, my 29-year commute ended 14 months ago. Unfortunately, that wasn't because of retirement...

I had a 23 mile route for the morning and a 30 plus or minus route for the afternoon (usually had to hit the half century since I was close).

Bowl of cereal at 5am. On the road by 5:30. At the building about 7:15, and at my desk by 7:30. Coffee (french pressed my own since I could use the work coffee to degrease my chain) and a snack--pop tarts, bagel, whatever.
