My commute is awful!!
Takes me longer to get the car out the parking area and drive to work than it does for me to walk to work


RE: I hate my commute... - Toms306 - 07-11-2012

Lol people that come down here for parts or stuff always say how nice my road is lol....bit different when you have to drive every bloody day though, when 'popping' to the shop is an hour round trip lol.

Damn I love Cumbria...

I used to be an assistant manager in a couple of pubs, and I used to do holiday cover at other pubs in the chain. For 2 months I'd drive from Leeds, up through Skipton and then through the dales up to Kirby Stephen over the buttertubs pass, then drive back 3 days later for a couple of days off. Best commute ever Big Grin

Yeah, your right dude. Sometimes when I'm driving through the dales on quiet, twisting country lanes, through mountain passes and across wild moorland, stopping at country pubs with nothing but the smell of coal fires and fresh air, I can't help but think "I wish I was sat on the northern circular in rush hour sniffing black cab exhausts while cyclists smash lumps out of my wing mirrors"...


RE: I hate my commute... - samass - 07-11-2012

Damn right dude, that's living!


RE: I hate my commute... - C.A.R. - 07-11-2012

Mine consists of nearly 20 miles of stop-start traffic and a short motorway sprint, before more of the same. Really, really sucks - especially now the kids are back at school!

It's really not mate. London is my idea of hell...


RE: I hate my commute... - samass - 07-11-2012

In all fairness man, I figured I'd have been the same, but its kinda fun, the chaos excites me! Got nothin on drivin in India tho, which is where i first learnt to drive, maybe that's why I like the manic stuff haha


RE: I hate my commute... - THE_Liam - 07-11-2012

That must be it. It's just the thought of that many people living in one place makes me shudder. I mean I live 5 miles from work which is right in the city centre, and even in rush hour it takes me 20 minutes...


RE: I hate my commute... - Pete - 07-11-2012

Mine mostly consists of sitting on the M62 for a long time, hoping to get out of 2nd gear sometime soon. Off to Penzance next week though..nothing like a 7 hour drive to start the working day lol


RE: I hate my commute... - THE_Liam - 07-11-2012

Now that's a nice commute, the A30 through Bodmin Moor is beautiful! Then again, even the M62 has some pretty views, coming back over Saddleworth Moor after picking up the diablo from Oldham there was mist rolling across the moors in banks, looked awesome!

Jonny I bet you stood on a box to take that photo. Or a wall.


RE: I hate my commute... - lewisdmz - 07-11-2012

Ah both those roads look like heaven, my commute sucks balls, 30 minutes to drive 4 miles in the morning. Got a bike now though so hoping to start cycling in when it's not shit weather.
