Been riding since the '60s, when my bike was my only transport. As time passed I bought more bikes, so some have been commuters while others have done the more serious stuff. My Glide did daily commuting for a while, but became my 'toy' come serious touring bike in more recent years. Mrs B and I have travelled from the UK on it to the USA and Canada and around Europe, several trips of over 2,500 miles. I have other bikes for shorter trips.

Yep, use it as my daily ride to school, and frequent long weekend trips to Charleston, SC to visit the kids. At first, after 40 years on a Shovel, it seemed huge and cumbersome but the more I rode it the more practical it has become, a true perfect bike, IMO.

All of the above. I take one major road trip per year, use my ride as a daily commuter, and for extended weekend rides to Laconia and Myrtle Beach.

Daily commute, weekend trips, trips with just the guys and trips where its couples. Anything from hotels, camping or under the stars. Going to be riding aimlessly into PA in June with the guys. When we take the girls with us we normally have a
destination and a plan.

My commute is about 20 steps from the bedroom, so the bikes get everything else.
