    I have 1546 miles as of yesterday and ranked 30th in the club. Not bad considering I spent 3 months laid up with my broken pelvis!

    I finally got around to logging my miles from this summer, at least the ones I have records of. I've done a fair few rides without my garmin this summer and can't remember when how long or how many. But with the ALC miles, I've added a fair few hundred miles to the total. Hope it helps. Once I get rid of this cold, I'll be back on the bike again and logging more miles.

    I have a big zero next to mine because I totally forgot about this journal. I think I have around 3,600 miles or maybe a little bit more. So I'm assuming that we can go as far back as January 1st to update (or start ) the log? And if so, that means that I am going to be completely unproductive at work or I will have to ignore my kids in the evening when I'm doing my updating!

    Holy cow! I gotta ask, how do you find the time to put in those kinda miles?

    Someday, I will be able to do that....

    My daily commute is 30 miles (roundtrip) so it adds up pretty fast. I can't even remember the last time that I didn't ride the bike to work but if I didn't, it was because of nasty weather or I may have had a conference/meeting to go and biking wasn't feasible. I also do longer rides on the weekends. If I do the group rides, they range from 40-85 miles. But if I go solo on the weekend, the rides are shorter. I'm always pleasantly surprised at how quickly the mileage adds up.

    Ooo how fun! I'll log my miles when I get home (it's only been a little over 2 weeks but I already have over 100 miles in!!).

    would love to participate on the team TE mileage race, but honest....I don't want another Internet forum to my list. Gotta control my recreational Internet chat time. As soon as I subscribe to a forum, I get curious and distracted.

    I vote for being completely unproductive at work!

    Oh wait....this wasn't put to a vote? Never mind!

    I don't need any encouragement to be unproductive!

    You can log them all in bulk if you want.

    I dutifully (anally?) record my miles and am on track for my biggest year so far.

    I never go to their forums but I love being able to track the wear on my different bicycle components.

    All right, already! I forgot about the TE part. I"ve just been recording my miles on a calendar when I get home. Easy, fast. BJ is fine, but logging in miles is a pain. So, what I'll do is log in miles-bulk. I'll not separate the two bikes I ride- one is my climbing bike which I use occasionally and the other is my main bike which I ride most of the time. I don't have elevation stuff altho I don't think that matters, right?

    Anyway, I ride about 150 miles/week so that should help our little team get ahead!

    Thanks for the reminder.

    I do read the Forum threads and occasionally write a new one myself especially if I"m leading a local climb or ride and want to tell others in the area. But, I'm picky as to which ones I pay attention to.

    I've been logging mine all year long, with due credit to TE! 1800 miles so far and a goal of another 400 before year-end.

    Well, that makes my life much easier. I also log my miles daily but I was using a basic Excel spreadsheet. I just looked at my log and I have 3,619 miles since March 31st - the day I started riding my new Madone. Now I have to find my other log for my old Trek - with my mileage from January to the end of March so I can add the two totals and plug it into the bike journal log.
