70 rides in 2014 so far (mix of MTB and road), which I'm OK with considering I also run (111 runs so far) and do gym sessions (38 so far in 2014).

There's a regular 9 mile commute involved, but strava so far says:

255 rides, 4,963km to date.

There's also a fair amount of DH sessions/ pump track play in there too. I think I've only been on two road rides which werent commutes, so there's been a lot of MTB kms!

Virtually bugger all.
Lot of personal stufff going on prior to an Achilles tear in June - just starting to get back into it now.
Incey-wincey local one - Dark Peak next Sat which although only 20-odd miles will test my still-dodgy left leg to the max!

Excluding commuting, have ridden the big bike twice since getting back from the Alps in August. Commute by bike almost every day if I can though.

Apart from commuting I probably get for a proper ride once a month or so, if that. I even took my mtb to Spain and France in the summer and only rode it to the camp site toilets!! Admittedly I was I'll for most of the holiday but I just don't seem to ride much lately. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Distance - 2,861.8 mi
Time - 257h 8m
Elev Gain - 276,227 ft
Rides - 131
Commutes - zero
Young children - 2
Puppies - 1
Typical days worked per week - 6

So I'm OK with that under the circumstances.

No stats, but 5 or 6 times per week. Typically weekends for mountain-biking and mid-week for roady. Mileage dropped since summer but still getting out just as regularly.

Done 4625 miles this year, but about 2500 of that is commuting. Looks like I ride my MTB roughly once a fortnight, and about the same for the road bike.

Managed 4 imperial centuries this year, including my first 200k audax. Trying to finally hit 5000 miles this year after several years of trying. Managed to stay remarkably healthy this year, but family commitments this last month and running up to Christmas will make it tight.

Next year I need to work on quantity not quality.

Simply not enough.

Either I'm going to have to ditch my bikes...or my wife. I'm sadly in two minds at the moment! Lol

Woefully not enough this year, new job and living in central London, less than twice a month for the mtb only very mild consolation is daily 20 mins of commuting. 2012 seems a distant memory when I was doing 3 rides a week. My last wet and muddy ride I did 12k and 300m climbing in 2 hours elapsed, sadly the less you do the less fun it is as everything is a struggle. ๐Ÿ™

Strava says 70 rides ytd, 832miles (95% off road) and 126,200ft of elevation.

I'm down on my norm, but still hoping to crack 1000miles (I lost many weeks of riding time due to surgery and radiotherapy).

1-2 a week at the mo, usually pootles round the lanes on the single speed once the reptiles are in bed. Been a crap year riding wise but compensated for by (although caused by) arrival of reptile 2.

Gonna get back on the triathlon horse next year though and have a cunning plan to get about 100 road miles in a week.

670 miles - 47 rides - 53 pasties - 35 egg and bacon sandwiches and probably too many cheese straws to count. Next year target is to ride more than eat pasties!

Girlfriend being 170 odd miles away, 70 hour weeks and single parenting have ruined my off road riding and vertical ascent. Worth it in the long run.

Not enough this year although I was still out 3 or four times a week. But I lost my road mojo this summer which restricted my riding a bit (its just easier).

I rode loads last summer, both MTB and road and enjoyed it more because I was much fitter. This year has been disrupted by work and the arrival of mini me (although I did ride loads in September just before he turned up). Since then....erm, four or five rides plus a couple of turbo sessions.

The only saving grace is that I have ridden more new places to me this year - BPW, CYB, CwmCarn, Eastridge.

I am starting to get a few more rides in now that mini me is getting a bit easier and starting to sleep through at night.

short 4 mile circuit every morning without fail, rain or shine, before work to get the head clear and blood flowing but i suppose that mounts up over the year 1,460 miles + occasional 10 mile commute to work and weekend rides but not so much over winter.

18 miles a weekday + average 10 miles at weekends = roughly 5000 miles a year.

This year 110 miles and 14 rides. Recovery from Knee Surgery beginning of the year. And ruptured Achilles in June.

Last year 550 miles and 40 rides Feb till June recovered from broken leg and knee injury from a rta.

Aiming to get at least two/three rides a week in next year. Two short (10 mile loops after my early shifts 0700-1445) and one long 20/30 miler on my day off next year.

I used to ride everyday after a 12 hour night shift from 2009-2013. And I felt good for It. Since I've stopped doing that I've had numerous injuries and a poor immune system.

2015 is a year of big changes.

I don't ride the MTB as much as I'd like but the road bike will get used almost every day. Saying that I've only done about 2000 miles on the road bike this year, I didn't step up my mileage on it til about halfway through summer, before that it was all short 10 mile rides.

Not a kept a tally on this years mileage, I'd guess somewhere in the region of 2500 miles and 180,000 feet of ascent.
