Will have done 400 by Friday,not in the group though.
No point as I only do off road miles,don’t commute & don’t own a road bike..
An off road one would be better,for me anyway 8)

Currently 16th, on 273 miles was 15th this morning, but some bugger went and did a few more miles…

I will top 300 miles by the end of the week but probably not much more than ~330, shame but I’m consoling my self with the knowledge I started back on the bike late after christmas…

It’s got me looking for more creative Opportunities to clock miles now, So I’m hoping Feb will be better. “Base miles” ~90 miles a week between commutes and a Tuesday night round the local velodrome are established and can be extended if weather/light/time allow, then it’s down to getting extra night rides and weekend riding in to make up the rest. it is of course quite marginal; a couple of days off for whatever reason and I’m going to be down on my mileage…

Still worth striving for the 6000 mile goal by the end of the year…

cookeaa – that was probably me, sorry! 🙂

I’ve not signed up for the Endo but I’ve managed 164 miles this month, mainly on the MTB, think I’ve only had the Road Bike out a couple of times.

I aim to up that in Feb. Being busy at work, mate being off the bike with a bad back and a can’t be arsed attitude have kept my mileage down.

Still better than this time last year though.

Nice one Ton.

707 miles here. Should have been more but have been ill since Sunday. Ho hum. Back on a bike soon hopefully!

So I came in tenth with 355miles.
Started late and had a week off due to back pain.
Feeling good for it though and hoping to get to 500 in Feb and make up the shortfall in a couple of months.
Well done to everyone so far and I agree with Ton, you can’t do 1000miles a month a have a full time job. 😯

Just good time management + keep chipping away at the mileage is the answer. Lucky I can get my weekday rides in on the way to and from work – getting a couple of hours in a day is easy plus stick a few 3 or 4 hour rides in at the weekend – job done. I am a teacher so I do get the school holidays to stack a few extra miles in :D. Had a full on school inspection the other week – so mileage was down a little for Jan – usually manage 250 or so a week on the road.

Horrendous month for me.
Just loads of issues followed by knackering my finger up by slashing it across the knuckle. More than a week off the bike. Hopefully Feb will be better. Chapeau to those that are ahead of average.

476 miles in two days, knickers I thought I’d got off to a good start this month.
Planned rides including an Audax might see me reach the target by the 16th.

I use Strava

Is it possible to transfer all my miles in January across to edmondo ?

Cheers for that Woody…not sure I have the time for that…esp with most of my little rides.

I use Strava too, I’ve just been adding them to Endomondo as manual activities, so all I have to do is add the time and distance, it doesn’t take that long.

Yes, but…

Where it has all that stuff for me, I’m only putting things into Endomondo to participate in this challenge with you guys, which means all I need in there is the times and distances and it’s a lot quicker than downloading and importing the GPX’s cos I’m only using the Strava App on my phone until I can save up for a proper GPS.

Only 329 miles for January, and then nothing ridden over the weekend, currently showing 15th on the table but that will slip once a few people commute home tonight.

Planning to do ~50 mils tomorrow between commutes and a night ride…

I think 400 miles through Feb is realistic, 500 is achievable and the ~670 to get me back “on target” is probably a serious push TBH, but not completely unachievable, TBH it’s all about consistency, and taking the opportunities to get out for a ride whenever I can…

The Best thing about the challenge is its got me using the Endomondo site, I’ve had an Endomondo accounts for ages but just never used it, pulling *.gpx files off Strava and uploading them to Endomondo has been pretty smooth and I really quite like the way the Endomondo site works and presents your data.

I don’t think I’ve ever managed 500 in a month – even in Summer my rides tend to be short but severe. Still , happy to join in for the craic! ** notices afterwards the age of the thread.
