I can't beleive it takes some of you that long to get in to work every day
 I do a 240 mile a day round trip and can be in work before some of the lads who live less than 30 miles away (London area). I can't wait to use the blue cow. I have now TODAY completed the first 500 miles on her, she'll be going in for her fist service this week. And then we'll be trundling down the M4 together  If I use it with the intention of, then I should have about 30 - 40k on her by this time next year..we shall see.  Use the bike man, I can't wait to

I think I lasted about a week till the first service. I'm expecting to be on about 25k by the time she's a year old. Of course, I don't commute, since I work from home. |

but if you use the M4 dont you have your own lane? which will explain why you can go quicker than me with a lesser distance journey.....
when your bike lane is the white line between the cars you tend to be a bit more careful than if youre in your own lane....  but its the only way to commute into london really.... even with the risks... I get to ride my bike 3 hours EVERY day plus what I do at the weekend.... fantastic!!!!
