30 mile ride aint that much of a ride if you can plan your route out well and you're in any kind of reasonable shape with a decent bike. I ride about ~150 miles a week, so youre talking to the wrong person. Average joe might not like that though. I'm not saying people should move... but most people i know work within 15 miles of their job.

There's also busses, carpooling, hybrid vehicles... theres tons of ways to curb this problem and not curb peoples free will to have fun. However I dont think anyone considers their commute in rush hour fun.

ALthough I don't like nascar either.
