Mine's 25 minutes if I run(2 or 3 mile walk), 45 normally. Most adults around here commute to London to work, so that's more like 1 hour-2 1/2 hours, and my friend sits on a bus for 1 1/2 hours so 44 minutes doesn't seem that bad.
If I'm riding from Brooklyn, I bring that average down. From Queens, up.
I wish there were an easy way to get to S.I. by bicycle. It's the only borough that requires going into another state to reach bicycle-wise. Unless you take the ferry or something.
OK, maybe I should clarify. When I said "you" I really meant "one," or more specifically, "I." As in, "I wouldn't be able to get to Staten Island on a bike without crossing over to New Jersey, unless I took the ferry or something." :)
No problem with the ferry. Just that if the idea is to get from, say, Battery Park to Northern S.I. using only a bicycle, the shortest current way is to go all the way up to the GWB, go into NJ, come down, and take the Bayonne Bridge. Or from Bay Ridge, instead of taking the Verazzano bridge, you've got to go to Manhattan and do the same thing.
I don't have anything against the boat. It's just not a bicycle is all. :)
