Commuting from Stafford = London

It's also price, which varies with distance more than with time. It's obviously a bit of both, but people are reluctant to commute much more than an hour, even if it's really cheap. I work in London (Zone 2, west london), 3 people in the office have a 1h commute, the other 14 take over an hour. Personally it's 07:55- 09:10 for me in the morning, and 17:30-18:55 in the evening, however if I leave 5 minute late, or the bakerloo is really bad, I miss the connection at Harrow and get in 45 minutes later. Thats bike/train/tube/bike. Before moving it was a direct tube and took 1h10 door to door, plus an average 8 minutes wait for the non-timetabled tube, so the same. Bike all the way took 2h15 though, which is a lot less than it would take for the 50 miles now |
