It's possible to cycle 11 miles in about 35 minutes. Make the most of the good weather. You will be fitter, healthier, less stressed, less polluting, and after the initial outlay for a new bike and all the gear, save money on vehicle, insurance, and fuel.

I'm 5 days late, but thanks for the recommendation. While where I work is a really bike friendly area, where I live is not and there's only three viable routes, two of which are freeways while the third is a non-bike friendly expressway.

Any other route would add a ton of time. I don't plan on working (or living) there much longer though, so it's only a temporary annoyance.

Likely the only connection to work is on the side of a 10-lane highway though. Not exactly a pleasant bike ride.
