I'm with Rewoga on this one. My office is 7 minutes from my home (by bike or car) and Vedder Mountain is 10 minutes by bike and 5 minutes by car. I don't spend my life commuting so I have lots of time for riding and I am close enough to the trails to dart out at lunch for a quick burn. I do get pissed when the police have their regular radar traps on Vedder Road and my commute bumps up to 10 minutes.
