My annual target is 6000 miles, 145 miles to go and will do that next week easily. I also like to beat the previous years total, so another 28 to do on top of that, again doing that will be a breeze.

I set myself the same target. I thought that the arrival of mini-QTip in July might have put a spanner in the works, but thanks to a decent length commute I met my target last month. Up to 11,154 km now. Unfortunately, only 323 of those km have been on the mountain bike.

My aim for next year will be 10,000 km again but with significantly more off-road. I’d love to reach 2015’s off-road total of 1500 km but the combination of parental responsibilities and having moved to somewhere with no local trails means that’s unlikely.

Unsure of my actual total.
A fraction under 5000 miles on Strava which I’ll easily get to thanks to the Festive 500.

It would have been 6000 miles had I done LEJOG as planned but I had to pull out of that one. 🙁

I never strava my commutes; I did start keeping a record of them but that soon fell by the wayside. However at 16 miles each way, it’s roughly another 800-1000 miles in a year (I don’t ride each way every day) plus track cycling which is even more difficult to esitimate – average of 25-30 miles a session is about 500 miles a year but that could easily be out by a fair chunk.

Kind of, my target was to commute to work by bike from November 16th 2015, if i did every day i would exceed 10000 miles for the year, but with holiday and daughter being off ill for a period, i clocked 8592 up til that date this year and will have clocked over 10000 by end of this year of the 13 1/2 months.

I’d like to say i felt like i was some sort of awesome athlete now, but after the initial weight loss and increase in aerobic fitness, i’ve actually just got really good at riding that route at 14-15mph and weight loss plateau’ed

I’ll finish the year on around 4500 miles which is quite a lot down on last year’s 6000 miles. But I feel better for it and I’m happy that as most of that is commuting I have saved a few quid in fuel costs. Probably haven’t offset the increase in food costs though.

most years I manage 7000 miles. 4 month off the bike curtailed that.
aim to beat 7000 next year.

Target: 4000 miles
Did 3400 by June, then home/ work got in the way. Now up to 3978 according to Strava.
Hope to get out next week, plus trip to BPW arranged.

Modest target of 2000 miles, which i’ll meet this year for the 3rd year in a row so at least some consistency. I reckon it’s about 50% off road too, so not bad.

It’s not a hard ‘must-do’ target though, and it’ll be less of a focus next year.

I don’t measure mountain bike rides – they’re all about fun.

I do, however, aim to cycle home from work (25 miles) 50 times each year. I’m on 48 and hope to get the final two next week.

I aimed to have fun. Despite some other aspects of my life being a bit stressful this year, I managed. So yeah, I hit my target despite being off the bike for a month and restricted to road only for another month.
4982 Strava miles so far this year. And they’re the only ones that count, right?

Have done over 10,000Km for the past three years but have only just got over 9000Km for this year. Not sure of the split – I noted the distances for each bike at the end of last year but those are at home but at a guess I’ve done more off-road this year.

If I commuted by bike every day then 10,000Km would be done and dusted but I think it would wear me down.

Edit: on a 2017 targets thread on the BB forum someone mentioned doing a (imperial) century ride every week – that’s got to be hard work.

Jesus wept – how do you lot do it? I thought I was a machine, yet I’ll barely break 4k miles this year and that’s pretty much all commuting. Anything 6k+ deserves a medal!

Should reach 2300-2400 on ‘offroad’ miles – no commutes or road rides allowed! Was aiming for more than 2000 so reasonably happy.

@Flange

Of my 9000 about 120 are off road. I do 200 (mostly junk) miles commuting per week, With the odd structured training session on the way in.

Need to do more of that, I’m not getting any faster or thinner at the moment. To sketchy for zone 5 efforts in the dark though.

I’m very gutted! I set a target of 2000 off road miles for 2016 and I look set to hit around 1900. Tempted to drag the road bike out to hit the number, but that would be cheating. I am definitely going to hit the number next year. But will have to raise the target as I am planning on starting road again next year

Might make 3,500 miles by the end of the year, against a target of 5,000.

Much less commuting and fewer audax events account for the drop. Actually hit my MTB target of 50 miles per month.

4000km target and I’m about 3500 and a good bit. A shoulder injury has kept me off the bike for a while, I’m just trying to see where I can fit in the last few hundred kms.

Aim was to ride more than last year, which I’ve done. Only 1100km but all off road and I don’t commute. Quite a lot of it has been with my kids, hopefully we’ll add to it on Sunday if No1 has recovered from his cold.

currently 4527/5000. it’s not going to happen

I set a target of 5000km. As of this morning I’d ridden 4437km, so not looking like I’ll achieve my goal.
