So many variables... I would have years I needed to replace bearing more than once when I lived in the PNW... lots of hosing off the bike...
I would personally just check them and replace as needed. Sometimes bearings are just shitty from the start, while others are magical and last when they shouldn't.
a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
