my current work commute is 16miles, and crosses the steepest section of the kent downs. on my side of the downs its rolling hills, on the other its pretty flat. i dont know how long it takes, but the ride home is always faster. ive had to give up fixed gear commuting as its just not practical for me anymore.
my current lady lives just outside of epsom which is about 40miles from my home. its a distance that im alright with doing, but its basicaly a long drag down the A26 and can get a bit boring. i could spice it up by taking a more interesting route through the backroads of the cuntry, but it is just a commute and i just want to do it fast. im gonna get me some clip-on aero bars next paycheck to take advantage of the long highspeed one road commute.
