I don't have a lot of choice... no car, and taking the bus all the way involves a 3/4 mile walk and about 20 minutes of waiting in the cold.(between transfers)
Or I can ride the 3/4 mile, then ride about 4 1/2 miles at the other end of the ride (The part I'd have to wait 20 minutes for a transfer for)
Alternately I can just ride the whole 14 miles.
