I'm currently commuting around 12 km one way, which takes me 30 minutes. How long is your commute?

That's quite a bit! How long does that take you?

One way about 1h10min - by car it's 45min, so i get 2h20min of exercise by investing 50min of time :⁠-⁠)

Most of the way the motor is off because I'm pedaling at about 29 km/h in the flats.

Good stuff.

The total time for me to get to work with the bike vs taking transit is also slightly higher, but I do make it up in the fact that I get great exercise, and save a little bit on the cost of transit. Plus, listening to podcasts on the bike is a perfect combination for me.
