How many miles do you average per year?

[Fredwina]

This is my first year of logging miles. I've got 6500 right now and will probably end up with 6650- 6700.
I also live where you ride year around (well , summers here do tend to be pretty rugged). when i lived in Pennsylvania, I think I managed about 4000, with pretty much zero riding between November and April.

I bought my bike at 48.5 years. This is the first full year I have had it and logged 2060 miles, I managed to do a ride every month from April to December. Pretty rare around here except for the major masochistic hard core cyclists - the weather was just very cooperative this year.

Well, in 2 years, I have logged around 4,800 miles. Pretty meger compared to some of the hardcore cyclists I ride with.

And I think I logged around 3,300 of those miles in 2006 alone.

WOW!! I have never seen this before and have been thinking about how I was going to track my miles in the upcoming year. Problem solved.

Thanks!!!! Merry Christmas all!

I've been cycling for 3 years and this will be my second year logging in over 10000 miles. I managed 12100 in 2005 and will end up with 11750 in 2006. I love to ride!

Cambuhl, I know that living in Houston allows you to rack up the miles year-round, but that is mighty impressive. How do you do it? Do you commute? Ride at night? How long is your typical ride?

I just started riding this past June and didn't start putting any serious miles on the bike until August. I feel like I ride every chance I get, but I "only" managed a little over 2000 miles for the year. I'd like to do about 4,500 in the very least next year, but 12,000 miles? Wow! Great job.

3000 for the last 2 years--hope to increase in 2007.

I ride about 250 miles a week, 4 nights after work (it beats sitting in that horrible traffic) and both days on the weekend. I am not a happy camper until I have at least 65 miles each day on the weekend and I try to get in 30-40 miles a night during the week. I love to ride and if I can't, I'm not happy.

This was my first year. My goal was 500 km. I did just over 2700 km. I'd like to do that much next year but will be away for most of July so that might be tough. About 2/3 of those are road bike km's and most of the rest are MTbike on the road. Only a small %age are true MTbike kms.

I love Bikejournal too!

I started riding lots of miles when I was 40 - it's six years later and this year I got in 8100 miles. Commuting helps a whole lot; I got the Xtracycle in February and the Gazelle Dutch Commuter in October or November so next year I'll have even fewer car miles in Jan and Feb. though I don't know if I"ll have a competitive thing with "Howard" on bikejournal to motivate me to do a November century and get 700+ miles in November and December again!
