As long as there isn't (much) ice on the ground, I use my bike as a commuter. Then as the weather improves she sees a lot more back roads.

I work out of my van I am a forklift mechanic so I can not commute so I end up riding for fun and I also have a little guy of 4 so I like to spend my weekends with him and the wife but when he gets a little older there will be more time for riding I also hope my wife gets her license when the the youngest is bigger but we will see

Not yet I will wait till he can rest his feet on the back pegs comfortably as much as I want to I do not think its a good idea

yea, i commute on it as much as possible. I have about 600 miles so far this year, which isnt bad for Philadelphia at this time of year.

I always ride my bike to work, rain or shine. I ride at work if it is raining or not so it does not really bother me. I am not made of sugar so there is no chance I will melt.

I couldn't get cage parking at my university if I tried, so my bike is definitely my daily driver. I love it - and being in SoCal means I can ride year round.

Yep, I Ride as long as the roads aren't slick. Sometimes I get caught in rain but that's a fact of Life.

Once it gets above 45-50 I use it as my main form of transportation. Though it really doesn't save me much on gas...I never go the long way in my car

Most of my bikes have been daily riders. There was a period when my son was still young when I didn't ride, but once I got back on a bike, I've almost always used it for my primary and preferred mode of transportation.
