Right now, I'm doing a bit over 30 miles per week. This varies with where I have to drop off my daughter at day camp on my way to work. A good portion of that is towing a Trail-A-Bike.

Weather has killed all mileage goals for the year. Rain, rain, more rain. Hope to get 3500 for the year but if this keeps up, who knows.

Medical issues have killed my mileage this year, but I have 250 miles for the first nine days of July, so things are looking up.

I'm running about 100 miles per week commuting with weekends being variable. I've only been at this for 5 weeks so I've not run up any numbers yet. I'm still undecided if I'm going to try tackling a winter commute.

1,300 miles so far this year. Hard to break it down by the week. Sometimes work keeps me from riding, sometimes it is the weather. Now that it is summer I've had a few weeks at 100+, but normally somewhere between 60-80
Should wind up about 3,000

I've been at it for 6 weeks but I'm doing about 100 miles a week also. I'm not concerned about the winter though. I live in south Florida and my winter weather will be even better for riding than what I have now.

Hills!
I aim for 150 miles per week. With schedules and weather, I've been averaging 130+ with a low of 83 and a high of 260+ for a calendar week. 300+ for a 7 day period... which I've known some people to ride in a single day. (not me)
