I was thinking there'd be the chance I'd bike into work maybe once a week this late spring & summer. I did today, and the total time it took (one way): one hour and 40 minutes. And my legs are somewhat jelly-like. It's a beautiful ride, as probably 85% of the ride as on biking trails & around lakes and so on, but as I do pretty much no other biking, it seems like that's a bit of undue stress I would be subjecting my "bikers" to, if I were to try the ride too often. Not to mention that a three-plus hour round trip puts a pretty excessive constraint on my work schedule; especially on the days in which I pick up Lucy.
On a side note: I was having all sorts of ruminations and thoughts along the way on the various geography (both physical and cultural) I encountered along my ride. I think it would be fun to do the ride, take notable photos; then do a narrarated slide show or something . Fun for me anyway...maybe not those that would be expected to view it.

I had a similar thought, along with a similar distance. Possibly more hills, and currently the wrong bike for the job.
Haven't done it, but it floats out there as a dream....
Wrong bike for doing a photo tour? You have a mountain bike, no? That seems like a perfect bike for it-you can take to shoulders & dirtways as need be.
No, biking 1 hr and 40 minutes to work.
