10ish mile each bike commute (I'll measure it on the way home) - Am I mad and how long will it take at a decent pace. Its country lanes mainly and a mile of town, no hills worth mentioning.
I'm quite fit but not sure I like the idea of turning up for work all sweaty. I would just use the car if it rained. Save money on petrol and get fit, then I could buy a fast car for playing and not worry about petrol. Think it might be too far though. I have a specialised rockhopper I could probably put back on the road quite cheap..... I think it might be too far.
EDIT - its 9 miles apparently, should I buy a road bike to do this or would the rockhopper be fine? probly have to spend a bit on it, its set up for trials from when I was a Kid with hard front.
