Daily commuting to work and band practice: about 120 miles/week (this doesn't include weekends or trips). Weather is not a determining factor. I ride daily rain or shine. Winter, of course, stops me cold (no pun intended). My riding season is from late March/early April to late October/early November.

Cheers!

300-600 per week. I ride in all weather that we get here, which doesn't include snow/sleet/ice etc...

Just hot and cold and a wet variant of both.

I usually ride About 20 miles a day on average. It all depends on where my job site happens to be. I ride several hundred on the weekends.

It varies. I rode 300 + Miles last weekend. Because of the rain I only rode to work two days this week which is a 36 mile round trip. I don't try to set any mileage figures. It is enjoyment for me and I ride when I feel like it.

Daily ride to work is 106 miles round trip, Weekends I add another 200-600 riding with the wife. I have over 13,000 miles since April 1st

I only drive the truck when its raining in the mnorning, I don't mind getting wet on the way home, but working all day while wet is not fun.
