 would probably be cheaper to move or is this just a temporary thing

Do you stay overnight during the week? Or do you actually do a DAILY COMMUTE of 680 miles?? If it's the latter, are you TOTALLY INSANE???  Jeez, I thought my 100 mile per day commute was bad enough  But it's a walk in the park compared to that! LMAOPete p.s. I could "perhaps" understand it if you RODE 340 miles (ya know ... for the love of the ride n all that Hahaha)

Re: the longest commute
I spent 9 months commuting from Preston to Rugby, doing 10 hour days in Rugby. I used to leave home about 5am, get down there in time for breaky in Tesco at 7:30, leave the office about 6pm, get home 8:30 ish, take away, telly, shower bed and up again at 4:30.
Why did I get back on two wheels, I ended up in hospital, I was vomiting blood, they took my blood pressure and was admitted. Work was killing me. So I went back to work 9 months after that. It was still there, I was not as indispensable as I thought. Now I do the commute perhaps 1 or 2 days a week. There is nothing clever about a long commute. It is extra hours and stress that you don't need. Sorry been there, done, that, bought the t shirt and I don't want another
