I reckon about 600 - mostly road so far, probably only about 100 getting dirty.

Ton- starting to get a bit late for base miles (although never stop them) but you should start doing a few harder sprint sessions for cross country to "convert" your muscles and make them faster...

EDIT: Barca2 beet me to it!

Cullen-bay. I'd be interested in knowing some more about your muscle conversion theory.

140miles mostly SS and off road, but I always take it easy in Jan'/ early Feb'. I was supposed to step it up this week, but i've had an off which has put me off my bike for a bit. I can never do too much or go too hard when its freezing anyway, as it plays havoc with my chest. I usually step it up at the gym doing squats and core work at this time of year which I think pays dividends when the hardwork comes later in the season.

I've done errrr .....
dunno, never measure it

1466 miles since 1st Jan, including turbo trainer but that only accounts for 151, virtually all rest done off road and singlespeed.

Re-checked the Report Parameters.... its 459.57...
I know... Idiot alert!!! Groveling apology....

For future reference JB - that amount of mileage [the 1st one] in such a short time over Winter is referred to as a 'Goan' or a 'Glupton'

786 miles but nearly all on road! Only been off-road twice this year which is poor. Hopefully this week that will change a bit!

A terribly poor 312 miles so far but most of that is offroad. The main reason is the death of all my bikes and the fact I've worked away from home 3 days in every week since the start of the year. Picking things up now though and I'm starting to get my road bike built up again.

I've swum 4 miles though. ๐Ÿ™‚

Zero. But in my defence I've known since December 24th that I was going to have brain surgery mid January, and that requires a 6 week recovery period after it. I'm 4 weeks into that, so hopefully I'll be able to start to get out in a couple of weeks, subject to how crappy I feel on chemo or radio therapy.

About 300 miles all in, commuting at least three out of five days. Mostly on road, almost all singlesped

totally unsure just now. Quick totalling up

27 a day commute - 5 x 6 x 27 = 810
2 x Edinburgh and back for work = 65 x 2 =130
Done 6 roadie rides of 45 - 60 + 1 today = 350
Average 2 midweek night rides by myself of about 25+ miles = 6x2x25= 300
average 1 midweek night ride with duggie style 25 - 30 miles ( prob more cos its a 4 hour shift) = 180 miles
weekend rides of average 1 per week 25 miles = 150 miles.

prob about 1900 miles

Thats an estimate though and dont have any proper way of measuring it. I do ride practically 7 days a week though. Alot of this blame is down to my new hardtail and the fact i hate sitting in at night and also the weather has been pretty decent for a while ( apart from snow then there's been no windy or real rainy days to speak off)

Good luck with it all missingfrontallobe. Chemo doesn't always mean you'll be sicker than a sick thing for the duration.
Kick its arse mate.

Mike, you are letting me down! As my Kielder hero I simply match your training routines and I finish!
However thanks to playing with Ascent at the moment I can say with authority... 56 miles. Hmmmm, need that commuting to start I think!

Hardly any tbh, it's about 5 miles round to the jumps, and I tend to do that about 3-4 times a week. Probably 80-100 miles then. Need to get on some bigger rides soon as my fitness/weight loss hasn't improved for ages. Keep lying to myself that jumping is interval training only much more fun ๐Ÿ˜›

Oh, wait a minute, just realised my bike computer is calibrated for road tyres, not cross tyres, so I reckon thats an extra 5.61111111111111111% extra on the 1800. :0)

720 miles in the last week on a singlespeed - 50% offroad 50% onroad - yes its the truth (16-17 hour days average on an ultra distance event/race/brevet) . Not sure about the whole year though.

The only means of measurement is on my road bike, which was tucked up for much of Jan, so I have no idea as I sit in work. Say 1,000.

Off road = one ride for about 10 miles in the snow.

Commuting is 50 miles per week, but that doesn't count.

Turbo - don't know. Was doing 8 hours a week on it during the snow.

Track - no idea. Do 2 hours a week.
