Nice, 25 minutes for 9 miles. I'm assuming there's not too may traffic lights and traffic jams (unlike my commute unfortunately) and that you pedal on top of the motor?

I have one set of lights close to the house and other than one other junction I have to cross it's almost uninterrupted cycling all the way. I do put some effort into pedalling to convince myself i'm not totally cheating ;)

Sorry I don't have the quote thing down well yet. I am a "bloody yank" but I will answer anyway!

Where do you live?
Cedar Rapids, Iowa (look it up on google maps)

how often do you commute?
MOST weeks I commute 2-3 days (I only make 4 round trips usually)

How far?
it is about 7 miles each way to Marion, Iowa, where I work as a truck (Lorry) driver.
How long does it take?

It takes from 30-40 minutes. Much is rural roads but some moderate highway driving.

My co-workers laugh at me, but I am older than most of them and can out work almost all of them!

Sorry, just saw your message!

I'm in the GMV (which I guess is East of the park), and I commute to around Farringdon station every day.

I know Farringdon station better than GMV :) - my first workshop was in Clerkenwell (behind St James church).
