the longest commute

104 miles each way atm but only done at the ebginnig and end of a session of shifts. I still do 44 miles each way while i'm down here though.

Or in other words my car is ONLY used to cuommute and i do 2500-3000 miles a month in it

A few years back I couldn't afford to move into London I was on crap pay 11k/year just got my degree and this was before I got the bike. I used drive over 400 miles/week spend 1 1/2-2 hours travelling each way to and from work. I couldn't afford do that kind of job anymore, I was broke when I got paid and worn out from work, wouldn't do it again.

I can now get to work in 20 mins on the bike now rush hour, or same ish amount time by car when the roads are clear it does happen! Its not worth it, wouldn't go back to the stress of it......

I only do about 40 miles a day, but my son does 135 miles a day on his CBF600

I go to work in my car each week day - 11 miles - and as it gets colder and darker I am amazed how many bikes I see.

It must be hard work in the ice and snow on a bike when you have no real alternative.

The contract I'm on at the moment finishes in March, I do 100 miles each way, takes about hour and half to two hours depending on if I'm on the bike or in the car and the traffic ( I have to travel on the glorious A14!) Don't mind the journey, always travelled for my job. Would be nice if the next contract is nearer home though, would probably get to take the bike more often then.

they have to pay me over £40K to get me to do that many miles id find another job if i was you

I commute 50 miles a day if I'm in the office......which to be honest is rare.

The 25 miles each way can sometimes take upto 1.5hrs though

My missus does 100 miles a day commuting and sometimes that takes her 2hrs+

I average 3000 business mile a month

My company car is 5 months old and has 15000 miles on the clock......and 1 month of those 5 it was in the bodyshop after I hit a dear in deepest darkest scotland.

Bugger that! 340 miles one way?! I do between 8 and 20 miles per day depending on where I'm working. I can't even begin to imagine getting up at 1am for a DAYSHIFT!

An old dear? Was she okay..?

Mines about 50 mile round trip to kingston (and back). Takes about an hour to get there, an hour to get back. Which is depressing, since its a 25 mph average speed - but at some points I'm doing 60 / 70 mph

Goes to show how long those traffic lights hold you up for!
