About 6.6 miles each way shortest route. Or 7.8 avoiding hill.
In uphill 30 mins best, usually 35 mins
Back 25 mins best usually 28 mins depending on traffic.
Doing 3 days per week and onto 4 now as only doing school run on wednesdays now !
Will be going for 15 mile intrip twice a week when the weather picks up though.

120 traffic lights here, I was sad enough to count them. Knowing some of Gaz's route, it's about the same for him. 70km round trip commute.

How many of us time their every commute on a stopwatch? Or is it just me and I'm sad?
I just got a PB of 33'20" over 10m this morning (on a Brompton) - quite pleased with that!

No traffic lights whatsoever. Just sixteen miles of tiny lanes in the Wye Valley.

11.5 mile round trip which I have been doing every workday since New Year (longest I've ever kept a resolution 
)
No traffic lights, one quiet RAB
, just about no flat ground though
)No traffic lights, one quiet RAB
, just about no flat ground though7.6 miles each way - takes me about 40 minutes going. Fastest was 32 minutes when all the traffic lights went my way and I had a lovely tailwind. Coming home is uphill almost all the way and I usually have a headwind. Fastest has been 40 minutes but usually takes about 45. Been known to take an hour when it's a really wicked headwind.
Heavy rucksack, hybrid blah blah blah... just pretty slow really and I don't filter much, or when I do it rather slowly. It used to take me over an hour each way on the bus so I'm happy enough.
