Mileage and the new office
My company moved offices this spring, and now my commute is a little bit longer. A direct route (if I drive / carpool) is just over 7km each way. Pretty short and sweet still.
On the bike, I take a more roundabout route (to avoid as many crazy Calgary drivers as I can), which runs about 8.5km each way, with a few fun hills for good measure. If all I do is ride to and from work Monday – Friday, that’s 85km / week on the bike. Depending on the week, I’ll sometimes add another 20 – 30km on top of that (a single round trip to Bowness Park is 30km).
And in other news, my gas bill is down, but my grocery bill is up…
