27 miles each way. Kent to Central London.

Anyone who does this trip im sure will agree on that its a horrible trip. Whether you go via shooters hill, or via Blackwall Tunnel....

I hate it, my life would be so much happier/calmer/less likley to crash if i worked out in Kent.

Anyone got any good jobs in IT in NW Kent (or surrounding areas :( )

Do 7 miles each way up the Old Kent Rd till the end of the week, could take the train as I dont have to pay but prefer to take the bike. Moving to a job further away, its 7 and a half miles each way. But at least its not going into London.

Thats a nasty route in as well. I avoid old Kent road like the plague.

8 miles or so to work along the Old Kent.

I'd rather do 50 on the M1 than this :(

being self employed,I dont have a set place of work.One day it could be a 120 mile round trip,next it could b half a mile.Still get up at the same stupid time though.
I worked in cheshire and lived in Somerset once.and did that for a year.I think it was the waking up as my van went through the hedge that made me stop.

I do 37 miles each way every day. Reading to Hammersmith on the M4. Takes me about an hour each way. It's so much quicker than the car, so I'm still not finding it a grind yet..
