My workplace is also 17km each way and I started cycling all the way there and back once I got a road bike (before I would do partial trips on my mountain bike plus public transport). Takes me about 40 mins to do the bulk of the journey plus another 10 to weave through the city to my office. I quite enjoy the cycles as I can put on a podcast and just ride.
