Commuting on your day off: running errands by bicycle.

I immediately connected with the title of this thread. I'm primarily a year-round commuter, and a very destination/goal-oriented cyclist. My usual work-week is Monday through Friday, but my duties are such that I find it useful to go into work on Saturday at my convenience when I can catch up on things without interruptions. Especially during the winter, having a useful destination gets me out on the road.
During the nice weather months I follow a rigorous planned schedule with daily mileage quotients for Century training, with long rides on Saturday. Usually I just elongate my 14 mile straight shot into a longer loop of up to about 75 miles. I can then take a commuter rail home with my bicycle when I'm done at work. So I do indeed commute on my day off. Never on a Sunday though ‘cause that's my day of rest.
