No idea, but not enough by miles! Ask me next year, I'll note the mileage on the Fs, Ht & roadthing tomorrow!

I think the total could be in the region of 3500.
More than last year.
This year a large chunk of the last two thirds of the year was ridden on a road bike which i really enjoyed.

I've ridden 1mile so far this year and only fell off 3 times - fairly impressive if you add up the empty lager cans I'd consumed before embarking on this challenge

You want to try full lager cans , GW. Much nicer.

Hard to say as I stopped tracking my miles in August as I cancelled my blackberry contract, so no longer had access to endomondo, which reads 943 miles. Rode at least 10km a day the 2 months I was in Whistler (that was just my ride to and from the bike park, not including all the runs I did) and I've been doing at least 7-8 miles a day since I got back in October.. I cba to work it out but maybe 1400 at a very rough guess?

edit - just realised it's actually 2012 now, so that's my mileage for last year ๐Ÿ˜†

I rode around 5000miles in the States this summer and perhaps another 1500-2000 in Scotland on and off road. More than I have ever ridden in my life. I enjoyed every second of it all.

Road bike miles don't count.

Reckon I've done around 1500 which in equivalent road bike easymiles is 13500.

I see your baited hook, Sir, but will have to politely decline.

In 2011 - 3,854.41 miles, which I'm quite happy about. Plenty of smiles along the way too; even in the wind and rain. Will be happy if I manage the same this year. My arbitrary 'target' was 10m / day average (3,650 total) so chuffed to have ticked that off on 30th November, I think.

2860 miles for me about 500 of which would be on road or town bikes on tarmac. I was hoping for 3000 but didn't quite make it. I measure all my xc, road, town bike miles this way and any time spent on the dh bike, jump bike etc in hours, 425 hours in addition to those miles.

Lets hope 2012 brings even more.

Aiming for 4000 in 2012

Happy Riding chaps!!

Since April about 600 miles on road and 300 miles off.

Simply not enough but better than the last 15 years when i did nothing.

Still got big plans for 2012, looking to do at least twice the miles.

Hard to say exactly, but I reckon around fifteen hundred to two thousand miles.

I'm going to try to keep an accurate record of my mileage this year; not for any particular reason, but it's interesting to know just how far you actually do cycle in a year.

My mileage is higher than quite a few car drivers I know....

According to the garmin - 1189.63 - all on mtb, so about 90% off road. Had a few rides where I didn't bother/forgot garmin so probably around 1250.

Interestingly it reports my max speed as 113.8mph...

Interestingly too - if you stand between the security sensor things in ASDA front doors, the magnetic resonance sets my cateye strada bike computer speed at 69 mph. I couldn't figure out how I got that fast for weeks.

Impressed

I have not tracked my miles. No bike tours this years so I would guestimate around 3000- 4000 commuting, running errands and for fun

2011, not a clue. I have no desire to know either. This year I have ridden round the village on my new bmx. Pulled a couple of little manuals and managed not to go over the bars when attempting to bunny hop. Good start to the years riding.

4001kms which I was really proud of until I saw this thread. Why aren't all you people in the challenges? My 4001kms is all for fun, in my own time, 99pc off road mostly on high rollers.
First ride this year today, 20kms round the woods with the dog. Magic. ๐Ÿ™‚

I'd be up around the 8 to 10 thousand mile mark at a guess although I can't account for exactly how each mile was earnt other than being on two wheels.
Road
SS MtB
Dark
Windy
Raining
Sunny on occasions
Tandem (some say only the captains miles count )
I definately ride more than I drive tho ๐Ÿ™‚

About 1200 miles for me which seems crap for a whole year. Really enjoyed about 1150 though, some of my best moments. the rest was more character-building.

Blimy at some of those numbers.

My bike-o-meter thing says a massive, whopping 1124.4km (that .4 bit is important)

Aiming for 1600km this year, but it's all fun, and I won't use the CX or Road bikes more just to get the numbers up a bit.

Well, I've hit around 3000Km this year through a couple of tours and my sporadic weekly road ride. Not as many as last year by a long shot and not nearly enough on my MTB.
Considering I thought riding was finished when I came out to work in this desert, I'm more than happy with that!

I just cant see how people are doing 10,000 miles a year. Even half that is seriously impressive stuff.
