Either you bike a lot, or you use very thin tires. I bike occasionally, and I still have the original tires on my bike that I've had since I bought it in 2018, I think.
How do you get your groceries? How do y on u get to work?
Once per year is pretty typical for folks who use bikes.
For those I typically drive because there's no good way for me to do it by bike. But I also put a few hundred miles on per year biking recreationally on a variety of surfaces.
