When I do about 40 miles or + on a Sunday my day is pretty much shot, especially in the warmer weather.
When I was working I found that any ride during the week would help, even an hour once or twice after work. Unfortunately the last few years at the job I was too exhausted after work and just rode weekends. That, along with the work, caused my cycling to suffer.
