Unfortunately, it doesn't work that way.
It doesn't add up to having an extra day.

It's just 6 minutes a day - probably less when going 60 on the Interstate.
My commute times stayed the same despite going some 12mph slower.

As much as I love driving, I hate commuting. People should give more consideration as to how they can reduce their commute time.
Something to be said for that, but I don't like to rush it.
I'm always arriving 20-30' early.

The extra hour spent per day is a lot, but that time will be spent accomplishing 2 things; commuting and exercising.
By bike it's 2 hours of work-out, which happens to include the commute.
That's good - actually gaining back some time.
