OP:

Did it? Still thinking about it? My commute, if i ever do it by bike, is 23.5 miles. But it takes me trough a ghetto that I rather avoid. So I'm guessing it's gonna be around 30ish miles. I can do 30 miles in 2:15 without even pushing it, but that's just running time. With stops is a different story. I usually don't take any breaks but waiting for traffic lights can add up a lot of time to the ride.

What to take? Two water bottles should be enough...Insulated if you want your drink to be somewhat cold. Forget the pump and use CO2 (you are on the clock) with an extra cartridge just in case. A spare tube and you are set. Oh, some money and a cellphone too.

I would not make it every day at the beginning. Every other day sounds better, till the body get used to the millage... it's 66 miles round trip.
