    only 144,000 ft (44k m) mainly commuting to work through the flat lands of the vale of evesham, in 4,300miles(7000km),
    and 240 rides!

    and that was with february off the bike in NZ

    Distance 2,352.5km
    Time 138hr 27m
    Elev Gain 56,124m
    Rides 79

    Average of 710.5 metres of climbing per ride.

    Have I really only been on 79 rides this year? 😐 Defo need to get out more.

    Actually, I got the Garmin towards the end of January, so add on 5/6 rides of about 20-30km each to that.

    probably about 90k feet, but 25 of that was in 5 days in the Alps, really not been out enough this year.

    Wouldn’t believe any figure from any of those online app things. From a previous thread ages back, endomondo smooths things out a bit, everytrail just takes all the vertical differences between adjacent data points, and strava “made up” some altitude from somewhere (no clue where, because it wasn’t in the raw gps file).

    So my figure claims to be 30567m so call that somewhere between 15000m and 60000m and subtract whatever the altitude gain of about 45km worth of chairlifts would be.

    245,000ft over 7,200 miles which is quite poor, but then I do live in the alps of London

    Edit: Radogair, kudos indeed, 1m ft would be a good target!

    Also a bit shocked, done 82304m since I bought my GPS in April. But I do live in Wales so it’s difficult to avoid a bit of climbing! 😉

    In old money, 615,000ft (barometric GPS, not smartphone), a bit over 8000miles. About 75/25 road/MTB.

    166,285 metres so far. Off to Spain on Friday for a month of riding so that should bump up a fair bit too.

    just in the interest of bringing the averages back down to earth a bit..

    YEAR-TO-DATE
    Distance 218.2mi
    Time 32hr 3m
    Elev Gain 24,613ft
    Rides 13

    I only joined in August and these figures should triple or quadruple once yunki Jr MkII starts sleeping through the night..

    no sneaky roadbike miles there either BTW..

    Easier to do more climbing on the MTB I find, road bike miles detract!

    Found the previous thread, so based on my previous experiment of accuracy and trying to work out wtf online GPS apps do to data:

    30567m == figure that endomondo reckons
    73908m == estimate of what Garmin and Everytrail might report ( = max. possible figure from raw GPX data)
    103106m == likely figure that Strava might report

    Maybe I should go back to Strava 😉

    (minus the amount of altitude gained due to Morzine lifts)

    My Garmin [500] and Strava pretty much correlates, ~5% difference

    78000 feet in about 2400 miles. I’ve got another 100 miles and maybe 5000 feet to upload from last week.

    Not ridden as much as I’d hoped due to being clobbered by a driver in May.

    I have absolutely no idea ) I have a fair idea of hours on the bike but that’s all.

    Total elevation gain includes all those little rollers on the road / trail doesn’t it.
    Earlier last yearI was ‘training’ for a big Alpine 3-day road ride and used a local 100+ mile / 2700m loop as a regular benchmarker. I looked up what the all the medium/large climbs added up to and it was only an alpine col’s worth, about 1100-1200m. The rest was just rises in the road, many of which you can roll most of, or power up in the big ring using momentum of the downslope before it – they may wear you down but they’re not ‘climbs’ in my mind )

    However

    Mark Weir (ex santa cruz and now cannondale) rode 1,040,000ft in 11 months in 2007(he got married and so missed a months riding)
    820,00ft off road on his VP Free or nomad and 220,000ft the road.

    I don’t care what that’s made up of, it’s a huge total..
