At present, 2.5miles each way. From next week, either 6.4mi or 15mi, depending how long I stay on the train (20mins or 1hour). It's going to hurt for the first few weeks I think!

12.5 miles each way, which i do three/four days a week. Any more than that and it ruins my mountain biking

6 miles there and, usually, about 12 miles back depending on route/weather/time. 3 times a week.

Just under 1/4 mile each way so I take the car as it's 1/2 mile each way if I do that.

ill be riding to work most days but shouldn't it improve your mtb rather than ruin it?

Oh dear... Mines 2 miles each way, and I still drive (4 miles each way in the car). ๐Ÿ˜ณ
It can be done on cyclepaths/roads or 90% off-road.

In the summer this route goes upto about 20-30 miles as I take a long detour up to the farm for the evening and then around the local woods then BBQ and home. (2-3 times a week)

1.7 miles each way. Forms my core training schedule.
I find if I commute all 5 days it riuns my weekend riding/racing! ๐Ÿ˜‰

[i]I is commute out of my bedroom door and downstairs innit.. [/i]

that sounds a bit onerous.

I've got my office in the spare bedroom so I only have to cross the landing.

less than half a mile each way. Takes 10 minutes on foot, not even worth getting a bike out ๐Ÿ˜›

20 miles each way for me. Minimum 2 days a week, normally 3 days a week during winter. Building up to everyday for the summer. Sometimes take a longer route by only a few miles. Got some good longer routes planned for the summer.

5 miles each way here. By default it's pretty flat too, but I eventually got annoyed with that and recently added in a small hill on the way home. I can generally manage to ride in every day in a week unless I specifically need the car for something.
