Cambuhl, I know that living in Houston allows you to rack up the miles year-round, but that is mighty impressive. How do you do it? Do you commute? Ride at night? How long is your typical ride?

I just started riding this past June and didn't start putting any serious miles on the bike until August. I feel like I ride every chance I get, but I "only" managed a little over 2000 miles for the year. I'd like to do about 4,500 in the very least next year, but 12,000 miles? Wow! Great job.
I ride about 250 miles a week, 4 nights after work (it beats sitting in that horrible traffic) and both days on the weekend. I am not a happy camper until I have at least 65 miles each day on the weekend and I try to get in 30-40 miles a night during the week. I love to ride and if I can't, I'm not happy.
