8 miles each way, Florida. That's the daylight-limited route. During times of the year when the sun is up early, it's 15-20 miles.

2 miles Boise Idaho
(I know my commute is hardly a commute anymore, I bought a new house close to work, makes it easier to be car free)

I hope to do this in the next few years. There are several nice condos within a couple of miles of my work place, lots of nice restaurants and shops, and a great grocery store. In about two years, we'll be in a position to sell our current home and buy closer to work. I figure I can always make the ride longer when I feel like it. But for now, I'm enjoying my daily 12 mile r/t.

5.2 miles on the way there but usually the trip home is longer due to running errands. Portland, OR.
I feel like I don't do enough miles now.

25km in, 22km out (15.5/13.8mi) (route in avoids a bad intersection at a 3km cost)
Sudbury, Ontario, Canada
BTW, that's my summer "get-some-fitness-in" route, my winter route is the shortest route because of snow and bad roads so is just 4km (2.5mi)
