Not counting his managerial and fiscal duties, our bishop tries to be at each parish on their namesake’s feast day, so that’s 60+ days away from home each year. He also does confirmations each year. Of course, he does the masses at the cathedral unless he is out of town.

Ours is the largest diocese in the US by land mass and he has to travel hundreds of miles.
