In the summer 2 x 2hr evening rides. 4-6hr weekend ride.
In the winter once a week minimum (I’ve failed a few times this winter).
Measured in hours as miles are completely dependant on road / mtb / terrain / weather….

Much more than I used to. I try to get an hour a day in but doesn't always work due to uni timetable/work. At the weekend if I go out on a ride somewhere that'll be 3-4 hours depending where I am. So on average about 7-8 hours a week, not much really.

Currently 2hrs Sunday morning, commute Monday - 40mins each way, 2hr Tuesday nightride, Thursday commute again or another 2hr nightride, all MTB.
And 2 kids BTW.Posted 2 years ago # -
As a minimum I normally commute 45 minutes a day by bike. Ride Thursday evenings for 3-4 hours and/or then do a 4-5 hour ride one day of the weekend.
Rare that I;ll do less than commute + 4 hours. I like to get in more. Got in 9 hours this weekend on the road as my GF was busy. Will rty and start to get 3 hours on the road one night a week in addition now the clocks have changed.
I'm young, no kids and trying to train for the Kielder 100 so I assume I do more than average. If I was single I'd ride every night of the week probably.

Really really try to get out once in the week but work often doesn't allow. If I do it's for a couple of hours max.
Weekends - usually 3-4 hours on Saturday and an hour or two on Sunday, but last couple of weeknds have been considerably more - yay!
Children - 0. I reckon it's just as - if not more - correlated to full-time job!

couple of quick 10 milers on an evening on the road bike when the nights are light enough
pootle on the road bike on a weekend
offroad probably one day about twice every three weeks

94.87 miles since 17th March.
I go out for a proper ride for a few hours once a week, and try and get two short rides on a mixture of road and cycle path in during the week to try and get fitter. I really need to motivate myself to go out more than once in a weekend now the weathers getting decent.

Usually about 2-3 hours on a Saturday and Sunday, and about 1-2 hours on a Tuesday or Thursday (both if I have time).
I've done about 3 hours every day for the past 7 days, though. Gotta love being on holiday

Most sundays and thursday nights during the summer nights.
During the winter 1-2times a month, mainly 15-25mile routes.

Commute to work even in rain.
Groceries by bike.
This month is revision so no riding for 2 months.
Turbo training 3x a week in mornings for one hr :O)
Filled my car with fuel 1.5 months ago but do the fortnight big shop at Tesco which I can't do by car as I'm too lazy and rubbish bike facilities.
Summer-car never gets used.

Thursday night-ride 2.5-3.5 hours
Sunday ride 5-6 hours.All local. I used to travel further afield once or twice a month and I'd like another day in the week, say Tuesday, but with two wee ones its off the radar.

Very seasonally dependant...
During the winter hardly anything, if it's not too icey just the 10 minutes to/from work and if I'm feeling brave occasionally a roadride along the valley or up on the mountain bike in the snow
In the summer commuting each day, after work probably a couple of 1 or 2 hour roadrides and a 2 or 3 hour mountainbike ride, plue at least one longer ride over the weekend.Posted 2 years ago # -
up till the end of last year, generally one big ride on a weekend of 5 hours or so, and perhaps and evening or smaller weekend ride as well. Now, not much, once every two weeks? Shorter too, 15 miles mtb max, about 35 road max. Soon, not at all for a bit
Posted 2 years ago # -
between 5-6 hours commuting a week around 100 miles total, maybe bet an hour or 2 over the weekend on either the road or mountain bike, run normally 3x a week with dog for 25 mins and an hour run sunday eve. 1 or 2 shrt swims on the way to work and 1 or hours masters training. Reading that its more than i imagined, it amazes me how i'm so slow at all of them, ah well i enjoy doing it.
Posted 2 years ago # -
10 hours commuting a week, and some more riding at weekends.
Probably averages out to be around 15 or 16 hours/week over a year.

2-3 winter average
3-4 summer average
50 - you're doing well WH!

2 hours MTB at weekend + 1 commute if I can be arsed.
Too many things to do and not enough time.
Posted 2 years ago # -
Commute to work on a road bike 3-4 days a week = now up to 1.5 hours a day after an office move.
Maybe a Thurs night MTB ride = 1-2 hours
Most weekends either a 2-3 hour MTB ride or 2-5 hours on a road bike.
Most weekends, 30 minutes having a gentle pootle with Jnr, aged 6 and really more interested in being with his dad without his younger sister being there rather than the actual riding!

2-3 times per week, all off-road - though have been out 3-times in the last 36-hrs
...3 kids
Posted 2 years ago # -
commute everyday to work which in total is about 2.5hrs a week.
i also try and get one night ride of 2hrs in per week and if i am lucky another 2-3hrs ride at the weekend.
somewhere in the region of about 70 miles off-road per week.

At the moment i'm commuting every day but thats only approx. 3 miles a day in total.
Tuesday nights mtb ride, usually around 20-25 miles.Thursday i'll do a road ride, approx 20-30 miles.
Saturdays i'll do either a mtb or road ride depending whether anyone is playing out.
Sundays ride with the GF on the mtb's again.
Quite a lot actually!

Did 30 miles on road on Friday, 25 on mtb yesterday, road sportive this weekend coming. Haven't ridden much this year though as new baby has kept me busy.
Posted 2 years ago # -
Per week-6 hours commuting (3days),one 3 hour evening ride,a couple of hours down the bmx track, one 5-6 hour ride and one day doing absolutely **** all.

I've hardly done any MTBing recently. Did Garburn on Tuesday, that was the first ride on my Cove since I rebuilt it (so ages!) and I did a short social/photo/play type ride with NBT on Sunday but that's been it. Couple of rides in the snow was the last time.
It's been all track and road for me recently and not as much of that as I'd have liked. Maybe 2-3hrs track per week and 4 days/week commuting on the SS road bike (35 miles a day) plus a road ride at the weekend, anything from 2 to 4 hrs.
