End of Year: Mileage (nerdy stats alert)

Yeah, why not

when I'd rather be sleeping

Again, I 100% agree BUT occasionally it's worth doing something outside your comfort zone. And this is one of those times. Riding in the dark countryside is awesome, when you're in a group, and have a half-decent light.

315 miles for May. Still below average, though I did have some lovely town riding last weekend in the sunshine. And tomorrow's night ride to Whitstable will kick off June with a handy 80 mile boost.

Distance: 630.79 mi
Time: 49:11:27 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 31,619 ft

16 rides, 33 hours, 514 miles, 25k feet of climb

first time over 500, woo.

night ride ... 80 mile

sounds fun!

353.6 miles, back on track after a poor April

June: 365 miles, quite a lot of that in the rain

547km 4686m of climbing for June a lot in bastard hot heat

Distance: 742.93 mi
Time: 53:43:26 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 52,252 ft

Record-breaking July for me: 524 miles. This also includes my new record for a week: 224 miles (not counting a few cycling holidays when I was a teenager when I probably did more than this).

Garmin stats:
Count: 17 Activities
Distance: 521.29 mi
Time: 30:53:13 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 6,397 m (or 20,987 feet if you prefer)
Avg Speed: 16.9 mph

However, it's even better than that because I didn't ride until 5th July so I can keep adding to that total until Saturday to get a 'month' - at the moment I'm on 592 miles for the last 30 days so I should be able to bump that over the 600-mark.

I'm very pleased with that, but my mind boggles when I realise that Krakow does double this every month on a unicycle riding up Ben Nevis in the snow.

Distance: 733.14 mi
Time: 51:38:01 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 46,548 ft

342 miles
21 hours

i'll spare you guys the excuses

june was 452 miles, which was a falloff from may, which was 518 miles ... what can i say, summer has many temptations.

622 miles for the 'month' 5 July - 4 August

>710 miles for the last 30 days. I will almost certainly never top this.

Topped it. Now at 720 miles for the last 30 days; 224 for this week (so far); 325 for this month so far (which would get me well over 900 for the whole month if I carried out at that rate). Will be off the bike for about a fortnight shortly, though.

ah yeah, training for vacation

407 miles for August, the vast majority of it in the first 12 days.

~900km ~9000m climbing can't be more exact due to some gamrin screwups this month. Good month, though.

501 miles, 23k feet of climbing. now to sacrifice my fitness via two weeks of vacation.

279 for September at an average speed of 18.5mph (much faster than normal - in addition to races I've done a few training rides at 19-20mph)

August (thru 8/16)
Distance: 425.53 mi
Time: 32:53:21 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 30,065 ft

Sept:
Distance: 0
Time: 0
Elevation Gain: 0

grueling (actually i have ridden my bike to the rail station so it's more like 20 miles or so for sept)

Sounds like you need some proper cycling trousers

i am planning to wear 25 lbs lead trousers to ensure quality workouts.

Just 241 for October. I'll need to do 300 per month for November and December if I'm to reach my target of 4,000 for the year.

297 for October.

I can probably scrape together 100km if I include bike share rides in London and Melbourne, a ride to the DMV, going to work and a jaunt to a pub near cambridge. I have already nearly done that much this weekend.

damn, "posts that hint at the poster's rich, fun-packed, fulfilling life outside of ilx"

yeah, i've probly got about 30 junk miles to put on top of the 297 just going to the railstation and dr/rehab appointments. but if my miles aren't garminized, they don't count.

Should have tagged that </BRAGGIN'>

410 miles for October ... 5,000 miles for the year looking realistic.

167 miles for November

3249km for year, hitting the road earlier next year, that's for sure

November has been so mild it's been my second highest milage of the year

290 miles in November, eek.

Pretty unlikely I'll be riding before 2013 so

5,022 miles
317 hours
306k feet climbing
153 rides

Surprised at the amount of time for some reason.

Next year: climbing goal instead of mileage? (Eek)

I thought I'd be able to pack a decent bit of riding in over the Christmas holiday, but the seemingly relentless record-breaking shit weather put paid to that.

233 miles for December.
3,800 exactly for the year.

Strava has me at 3353km on the road, heavily weighted to the back end of the year, over 3000km June to the end. There's probably ~5000km including riding on the trainer which doesn't count but sets me a nicely attainable goal of 5000km on the road for the 2013.

35901m climbed as well

22.5km/h average speed for the year

308 rides (actually more if you treat each commute direction as a separate direction)
Distance: 5,635.05 mi
Time: 411:18:45 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 298,166 ft

36 rides
Distance: 562
Time: 35 h

i've gone all strava. does it generate more detailed reports that include elevation gained?

go to your profile page, click on "monthly" beneath the bar chart

i've been sick and not riding at all the last week, blah

215.6 miles - longest ride just 30.6 miles, been a difficult month to get out

343.8km

1385m

only ~100km of that outside, too much snow and ice.

I see through your cunning ruse of measuring your 'rides' in kilometres to make the distance sound greater. I would like to re-report my total for January: I covered approximately 90 million inches last month.

I always report in kilometres, it's the global standard, miles are obtuse and archaic. Back in my teenage touring days I started using kilometres because maps are in kilometres and it makes navigation easier.

At work, if engineers want to wind me up they show me graphs in lbf or Foot Pounds, it owrks so I probably need to get out more.

remember that time nasa shot a mars orbiter into mars because gu'ment engineers used the metric system? that's what happens, ed.

think on that while munching your royale with cheese

btw thanks lukas, i would not have figured that out i fear.
