And then I would swing by home at the end of the day, grab a quick snack, and be out on the bicycle until dark.

These days I walk to work so I'm not getting the commuting distances in.
Commuting to work is out of question for me. Otherwise, 1k mi months would be achievable. There are days I don't leave work until 8pm.
