I need a ruling on what is considered commuting mileage and what is not. I was with some friends this evening (some are commuters some not) and I mentioned that I only consider mileage riding to work as qualifying as commuting miles. Everyone else says no, any ride that replace a car qualifies as commuting miles. I must say I was surprised by unanymous agreement.

This came up because in order to reach my years mileage goal I'm considering losing some vacation days (can only carryover certain amount or lose them). Yeah it's insane but I'm really close. If I include non riding to work miles I'm already there. So, consensus determines how much I work this month... no pressure.
