I hope you know I was kidding.  I forgot the smiley face.  We're fortunate 
that we have a lot of time. We ride 45-60 minutes before breakfast, 45 
minutes at lunch and 45 minutes after dinner (at least when Debbie is 
healthy -- right now we're not riding at all).  My commute takes me under 10 
seconds and consists of walking upstairs.  Heck, I don't even have to waste 
time showering and shaving every day.
