My other bike's a GT Avalanche (Mtn bike)  That's what I took to work, as I only lived a couple miles away.  Once you factored in the longer route a car had to take, walking to and frorm the parking lot, and finding a spot...it really only took about the same length of time and it didn't have to pay gas, insurance, and repairs were much cheaper.

Damn. Maybe if I talk REALLY nice, my girlfriend will get me one for Valentine's Day.

Yea. I'm thinking of tuning up my mtn. bike, and using it as a daily driver as opposed to the moterized version.

it also looks like I may be switching jobs here in a bit though, so I don't know exactly.

Uh... kuz i'm not gay?

I currently live about 10 miles from work. it's a good 20 minute jaunt on a mtn. bike if you are in good shape. (and I'm not, although I was at one point)

I'm looking at two new jobs.

one is another 5 miles from my house... I could probibly still pull that off if I was feeling like getting back into shape.

other job i'm looking at is about 40 miles away. little bit much even for me.

10 miles...that was about how far my favorite comic store was when I was in Vegas.  There was also a good sushi place about a mile off the route I'd go to.

The only time I ever really walked anywhere was when I was living in Tulsa and had no car. Amazing how fit you get eating once a day and walking EVERYWHERE.

Heh.  People asked me why I didn't drive to work, I usually told them I hated going to the gym or that it was cheaper.

Right now, though, I live too far from school to bike. (At least, it is while there's snow on the ground)  Takes a good twenty minutes driving, but I go to the pool (when I remember) and have been doing martial arts two nights a week.  Not to mention walking between classes.
