Between work, single-parenting, house chores seems time flies and commuting is only an occassional luxury as I cannot regularly do the 30 mi round trip.

I use my bike for errands where I do not have to carry a lot of stuff. I sometimes just go out for a quick ride of a couple miles ... even that feels good.

On weekends, I take a few longer routes to my errand destinations. Where I do have time, I have a couple of different 12 mile routes in town, so I can get in a nice hour or so ride.

Mostly, though, it's errands that get me out and I probably find more errands than I use to these days.
