how many miles

Average daily ride is 60 miles via 2 different routes.
Once a week 75 mile ride via same route incorporating 60 mile route.
Once a week 85-100 mile route incorporating the 60 mile route as the base.
Terrain is rolling hills and flat stretches with no extremely steep hills. Probably no more than 7% grade. No long grades. 2-3 city block lengths.
All of the above is in season milage, winter weekly milage is less, due to weather variables. Some weeks go by without any riding time outside and all riding done in the basement on a stationary for 1-2 hours at a time if I can stand it. I am retired and dedicated to fitness through bicycle riding. I have used it to keep my Cholesterol in check and aerobic fitness level up.
And it's fun and I love it. All miles fixed gear.
