i'd be an idiot to drive to work - my commute is from beside DCU to leopardstown. if i drove, my options would be to use the M50 - and that'd cost at least a tenner a day in petrol and tolls, or go through the city centre, and lose my sanity.Today I cycled to work faster than I can drive to work for the first time
i was taking public transport (bus into town, luas out to leopardstown) up to a few months ago, which was an hour in the morning (leaving before 7am) and an hour and a quarter minimum in the evening.
as it is, i can get up at the same time in the morning, and am at my desk at the same time, either cycling or on PT.
the main impact on my life (apart from being fit) is that my book reading has suffered badly.
