do you have a job?
Posted 2 years ago # -
For 8 months of that I was working. For the rest of the time I was commuting 70 miles each way - that got in the way of biking a bit.
100 miles a day at the weekend and 40 miles/night - its not that much really.

Posted 2 years ago # -
if i'm being honest, definitely not enough.
making up for it now though. got some tough(for me) goals for 2010 and i plan on achieving themPosted 2 years ago # -
nothing like enough miles (probably around 800-1000,but have suffered with depression so that is partly the reason.) have just got a new 2010 stumpy fsr comp bike though,so my new years resolution is to ride loads.unfortunately my nose is running like a tap today,but will keep to my resolution when it stops running.

Ton - you are correct on one point - my name.
Posted 2 years ago # -
18000.do you actualy have a life out of the saddle.
ocd springs to mind.Posted 2 years ago # -
george, you are taking the pish tho surely...
i do not believe you rode that far last year...
Posted 2 years ago # -
Ton - seriously. Couple of hundred miles every weekend and 40 odd per night - sometimes a lot more. I was training for something. 40 odd miles on the roadie is about 90-120mins at most.

Posted 2 years ago # -
actualy a bloody good idea.
seeing as all the oil will soon be gone.

In 2009 I did:
7062 km of exercise (4388 miles)
of which:
4957 km was on the bike
1326 km on unicycles
680 km walking in hills / mountains
97 km runningI also swam outdoors in a total of 18 different places in 3 different countries (UK, Italy and the USA), but I haven't tracked distance for that, as it makes no sense as a measure with the currents that you get in a lot of the places I swum. Oh and I seem to remember I've swum maybe 4 or 5 times in indoor pools this year too.
Joe (how nerdy is it that I have a record of all this?)

It would appear that my new username is bang on the money here.
Posted 2 years ago # -
why have you got a new username? what was the old one? did you get banned for bullshiting?
Posted 2 years ago # -
Just under 3000, but this year I hope for 10,000 just in recreational and training rides.
Posted 2 years ago # -
What event were you training for; the TDF. 40 miles in 90 min that's in excess of 26mph average. Impressive! I did 2500 miles.

2104.8 miles in 179.8 hours. Lost a month thou torn ligaments in May.

40 miles in 90 min that's in excess of 26mph average. Impressive!
Impressive in the lying/trolling/bull****ting stakes as per usual...
Posted 2 years ago # -
Depends on the tailwind and whether riding in a group or not surely. At the other end of the scale 2hrs for 40 miles is easy btw.

No idea. Didn't keep a log for the first time in 2009. Just went out and rode with my friends as often as I could/wanted to and rode to work quite a lot until it went all dark and cold. Someone, far wiser than me once said, "it's about the smiles, not the miles"
On the upside, as fit as I've been in a long time. Riding here and with people considerably better/fitter than me has made a huge difference. I just didn't feel the urge to write it down
