have an hour commute into work, takes about 2 hours to get home ....
How often do you ride?
For the most part I ride every day. Wake up around 430-5 some like to go jogging I go riding. Come home eat breakfast then ride to my shop , and at the end of day back home. After dinner and family time and kids are in bed I usually go out for another hour or so. Of course also going to plenty of rallys and shows throughout the season as well.

No nearly as much as I / we would like.....
Work and life in general has a way interfering with more seat time....
Once, maybe twice a month during our riding season, I'll ride with the guys
and we will do a 400 mile lunch ride ...
Weekends my wife and I try to ride as much as possible....500 mile days are fairly common for us.
Averaging 11k/12k a season up here in the far northeast corner....

Nearly every day between sometime in February and December here in Ohio. I could ride more but the maintenance required after the ride (to de-salt the bike) is just too time consuming so I do what's easy, take the truck.

pretty much the same here....i run from southern maryland to springfield va for my 52 mile, one hour, one way commute. i go in early @ 0300 hrs so i don't have any traffic in the mornings, some on the beltway in the afternoons. i have 4 lane for about 48 miles of it which makes it not bad unless there is an accident. i ride pretty much as long as its over 35 degrees so there is no ice around. lower if its been dry for days. i use electric gear so it extends my season. just turned 38500 on my 2013 FLHTK. i ride a little on the weekends. not as much as i'd like.

Retired and we recently went down to just one family vehicle (besides Harley). I use my bike for trips to the grocery store, grandkids games, all my errands. At least once a week will do a short day trip somewhere up to about 200 - 250 miles.
Current rate of daily riding will put my annual mileage between 15,000 and 20,000.
