Mileage Deduction

I have a consulting business/sole proprietorship.  I have a home office 11 miles away from my primary client.  I visit the client about 1 - 2 times per week and I deduct the round-trip mileage.

 

For the next few months, I will be working about 180 miles away from the client, but I still have to visit their site about 1 time per week.  Can I deduct the 180 mile trip (plus tolls) or am I limited to the 11 miles which is the distance from my office to the client?

Deduct the 180 mile trip (plus tolls) because that is the travel you have to do.
