I didn't think I would commute much when I took my current job. But over six months, I increased my average miles per week to over 100 and was able to add more commute days. 22 miles in the morning, 6 in the evening (work provides a Caltrain Go Pass!). Fortunately, relatively flat and good bike lanes for a rather safe ride.
My previous job was 16 miles and I biked both directions.
Commuting was the majority of the 6k biking miles in the last 12 months.
