Or I have to redefine what "commuting" counts for.
I currently only count my "home > work" route. All the other stuff I count into my "recreative" rides.
But currently I'm also getting my kids from school with a trailer I hung on my bike, it's just 1 or 2 miles a day... but as it is not to work, I can't count it as commuting? Or should I do it, as I do it regularly and it's actually not a "recreative" ride... it replaces a car ride.
Now the weather is getting better, I'm more often going to ride until the next railway station (instead of the most nearby station), so I get more miles faster.
