I don't have time to answer 10 questions, but I can tell you that for me the single best way to increase mileage is to bicycle commute to work. And yes, I work with a demanding job, and ride. But not at night or in the rain. I live in south texas so its mild all year, so I own lots of layers that I can switch out to accomodate varying temps.

I have no idea how many miles I ride per year. I ride twice a week from spring through fall because that is what I like to do.
My house is a mess. But as a cycling friend recently said to me, when you're old you will not sit home and remember the times you stayed home to clean.
If you want to ride your bike more, then just do it. Buy the clothes and equipment you need to be happy and comfortable, then ride.
- Gray 2010 carbon WSD road bike, Rivet Independence saddle
- Red hardtail 26" aluminum mountain bike, Bontrager Evoke WSD saddle
- Royal blue 2018 aluminum gravel bike, Rivet Pearl saddle
Gone but not forgotten:
- Silver 2003 aluminum road bike
- Two awesome worn out Juliana saddles

Commute to work by bike. You can make it work if you want to. Be creative.
Ride your bike for transportation. Every time you get in a car is an opportunity to ride your bike.
