rack up miles on a bicycle/bike
Explanation:
If you're a super cyclist looking to rack up miles during the week during a 10-mile or longer commute, then you may call yourself a bike commuter, but it's really a training ride. Or a combo. You're the exception, and don't need any guidance. Most bike commuters are bike riders with shorter commutes.
