10 in this morning, probably 15 home tonight as I'll do a little detour on the way home. It is Friday, after all. Plus it'll make that well deserved first pint taste that bit sweeter.

I think you'll find your post was the problem matey, not our replies!
How much have you done?
Well it's not 32.5 miles it's 15.5
The rest, I haven't done yet.
How many commuting miles will you do today is what you meant.

Ahhh - the extra miles were a possibility, and now it seems it's a commitment.

25, then.

17.5 miles in this morning, and maybe 18 back if you take into account the weaving after a beer or two... 😀

how many miles will the Singletrack massive have done just commuting (not interested in “playing out” miles) [b]to work on their bikes?[/b]

So why is Harry adding the return journey too? Did he not read his own post?

Can I add rolling the bike along the train station platform too, and also rolling it along the office floor?

I had to LOL at the photo of JesusFacePlant..

This threads hilarious.

12.5 miles this morning, another 12.5 if I cycle home, which I should, unless something unplanned happens.

5th cycling day this week, which will boast the average for July a bit.

30 miles today

We have had a cycle/walk to work day and as a company we have saved over 100 miles and the local paper have been around to take a picture.

These things make the news in Cumbria!

To quote myself...

Harry_the_Spider - Member

Bah. Why can't people just say how many miles they will do? Couldn't give an arse how many they would do if they weren't driving or going home via the **** ing chippy or Shropshire (Dave )!

How many miles will you do today commuting on your bike?
Total.
There and back.
Door to door.

Yep. Much better than the original theme. 😀

I have calculated the results based on the data collected and between us we have saved enough money to buy a pork pie of indeterminate size.

Possibly.

Oh - just remembered - on my ride in (8.5 miles) I saw a dog fox with a rabbit in its gob. Not in a field btw - this was in subway under an M60 slip road!

I've already said 30 miles but that is broken down to 24 miles rural of which 2 miles up steep hills about 2 miles down steep hills, saw a Peacock after 8 miles and counted 32 cars. Also had a few miles uphill in the 6 miles of urban riding and rode the wrong way down a one way road 14 miles in followed by cycling on a footpath at 14.5 miles and the cops saw me.

i hope that all helps with the statistics.

2.1 this AM to work. Was planning on a 20 miler this PM (we finish at 13:30) but really can't be bothered/feel dog tired. Walking tomorrow and cycling Sun so I won't let it worry me that I'll probably only do another 2.1 to home!

Oh are we breaking down to surfaces now.

Ok if I go on my bike it'll be about 375metres on road and about 25metres off road, some of that road is private about 10metres in total at a guess. Elevation will but about 2metres and descent maybe 5-7metres.

Cost saving on taking the car, well there's a question I reckon it'll break about even per mile as I'm still paying for the bike.
