    How far for you?
    My 14 non-motorway-miles journey could soon turn into 27 mostly motorway miles…by choice…just wondered what people do on average.

    75 miles each way as a minimum, more if I’m out and about. A lot different to the 50m walk I had six months ago.

    Cruise control and long audiobooks ftw.

    Short route is just shy of 3 miles, country road and busy B road.

    The route I take (on bike) is 5 miles and all country roads.

    7m from the kettle, 2 3 from the bed (home office)
    550km to the proper office (once every 6-8 weeks)
    after that we are talking 2/3 flights for most jobs

    back in the UK it was 30 miles/90 mins around manchester or 30 miles 35-40 mins in Cumbria

    I work from home mostly but go to London one day a week, sometimes two.
    That entails a 13 miles on the scooter, 120 miles on the train (2hrs) and then another 3 miles on the bike I keep at Paddington.

    I use to do 45-50 miles into West London, took just less than an hour on the m/c whatever the time and between 1 and 2 hours in the car, depending on time. Public transport took longer.

    I now cover 6 miles in 9 minutes 🙂

    1 mile. It’s nice to walk to work but I miss sitting in the car and listening to the radio to be honest

    I used to do a 40-50 minute drive. Dropping to a 10 min cycle was a massive breath of fresh air. Now work from home which is even better. You’d have to drag me kicking and screaming to a 27 mile journey.

    30 miles, mainly motorway, about 45mins ‘cos I drive like Miss Daisy’s chauffeur to save diesel, (and what’s the rush?, I’m only going to work 😀 )

    Or 15 drive and 12.5 ride a couple of times a week. Brilliant.
