in terms of being able to ride it. I rode rides this year of 100km, 75 miles, and two centuries (100 miles), one of which had 8,500 feet of climbing. The distance affects how long it takes, which is too long per day. I'd be riding in the dark both ways. The main problem is the traffic -- there's really no good way to get into and out of where I work. If I worked in a slightly different location, then I'd consider biking. In my current location, I'm more afraid of getting killed than anything else.
