I mean not in pedestrian and bike hostile places. But in Germany I was commuting 30km each way daily on an analog bike, no problem.
For reference, 30km is 18.6 miles.
30 miles would be 48km.
It's feasible, but it's a pretty significant time investment!
Not just a time invesent -- if you're biking 18 miles you're going to need a shower where you're going, or you're going to need a job where you can show up drenched in sweat.
And that's not factoring in rain or snow or having to transport large objects or people.
I mean considering people drive a hour each way in many places...
Yeah like, I've done it. It's not terrible.
If the weather is fine.
I wouldn't want to do it in blowing snow lol
Same, would sometimes hit the Schauinsland on the way back home just for fun
