Ride everyday until november, or temp drops below 40 in am, and rain is below 60% chance. 40 miler round trip.

20 miles each way, a mix of highway and two lane.&nbsp\\;I ride any day that the weather is calling for less than a 30% chance of rain. It is sooo nice walking out of that factory and jumping on my bike!

Greetings,

26 miles round trip as often as the weather allows. No issues here at all.

Ride an 03 fatboy all year long (reasonable weather) here on Eastern Long Island. 32 Mile round trip with additional on the job trips. Get 30.5 cents a mile for work trips. I think it is a pretty good deal. Have 53645 miles on the bike with NO major problems!

Great thread, I'm looking at 80 miles round trip in San Diego so weather really isn't a problem most of the year. I was wondering about this as well, but WTF beat me to the question. Great replies from all!
