Cycling 4.5km averaging 12 mins at 5:00 and around 14 mins at 13:00

Best things about it are I like cycling, it is free exercise and about twice as quick as driving if not more in the afternoon.

Worst things about it are wind and cunts that can't drive their lumps of metal safely or predictably (particularly taxi drivers, fuck you cunts with razor blades)

Everyone should cycle if they could, it is much better for your physical and mental health and is a good wind down at the end of the day. Just kit yourself out properly for the weather.

What do you like about it? The views. Beautiful sunrises over red-tinted mountains. Also, that I drive against traffic.

What do you hate about it? The length. Takes about a half-hour, I wish it were more like 15 minutes.

What kind of advice or insights would you like to share with the rest? Not sure if I have any insights. I'm lucky to have a great view.

I live next to my university so I just walk which is amazing, it's about 15minute long, the only part I don't like is I have to go through a very dodgy neighborhood, other than that it's great!

an hour by bus in the mornings when traffic is bad but not awful like it is in the evenings & it takes two hours to get home.

[–] ares35@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

not much to share because it doesn't last long enough. three minutes, give-or-take, depending on how many assholes blast through the crosswalk on the highway i need to cross to get from 'a' to 'b'

I go to school from my dormitory by public transport (tram, bus, metro). There are three possible routes that all take 15–30 mins depending on the time of the day with 1–2 transfers, so I have a bit of variation.

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 0 points 1 year ago

I'm lucky right now because it takes the same amount of time by car as it does by transit. On a good day it might take 20 minutes, on a bad day it could be 30-40. The bad days only happen when there's terrible weather and the roads are at a standstill

About 25 min across the city by motorcycle, or ~35 min by subway, twice a week. I enjoy driving so I mostly do the former unless the weather is truly shitty.

What I like about it: splitting lanes in the morning traffic jam. Wheee!

What I hate about it: Nothing, but I'd prefer 25 min across the countryside instead of the city
