Do you ever run into issues with the bus taking a lot longer, and you not accounting for the extra time if your wife take the car? Where I live, 15-20 minute car rides are often 35-45 minute bus rides, and the bus comes half an hour.

Not really. I just leave at the time needed to get to work on time for whatever mode I'm using. It's about 8 miles, and before COVID it was usually quicker to cycle than sit in traffic. Now there's less traffic so cycling takes a bit longer than car, but not much. Bus is about the same as cycling.

I'm 57 and not hugely fit, but I can cycle 8 miles each way without any problem. Takes 30-35 minutes depending on wind direction.
