Even being as sneeky as I can, my rail fare is �235 a month for an 11 mile commute that door to door takes 45 minutes,
A March 2011, 150 mile ex demo Tenere in my favorite blue is �202 a month... and door to door it takes 18 minutes plus de-kitting. 480 miles a month is about 30 quid in petrol right?
... Ive been given the gift of time, an extra 50 minutes with the kids every day.
No more walking a mile to the train station, no more sitting in sweltering conditions in a packed train, with people coughing on you. No more walking a mile from the train station, No more more missing the train, running another mile to the next station. No more trains delayed lost or simply ******ed, due to leaves on the track, Admittedly snow will be interesting. But it all adds up in my book.
will update
And if I every get around to emigrating this is ideal bike for it, get wifey a Rangie and sorted.
