I’ve ridden my MTB once this year.

Quite a bit on the road though.

Yeah not bad, usually at least once a week, twice a week if I want an argument with the wife lol.

I’m closing in on 3000 miles so far this year but my mountain bike hasn’t turned a wheel since June so it’s mainly been road and commuting along bridleways and towpaths on the cx.

149 rides
2349 miles
149,912ft ascent

Aston hill, tidworth, 417 flyup, fod, antur stiniog, bpw, windhill, bmcc, swinley, qecp, morzine & a handful of enduro events.
Ive had a pretty good year out most weekends. Got to get the rides in before winter as I dont ride then.

Started riding my bike again on the 25th August.

Have since covered 157 miles, 7336 ft of ascent.

This thread normally pops up at Christmas, but early this time!

Commitments mean I snatch an hour and a half long rides around once a week, with the odd rare longer trip out. I’ve been out 41 times according to Strava, mileage isn’t impressive due to the aforementioned time constraints, but consistently getting out which is nice.

Distance 880.0 mi
Time 151h 53m
Elev Gain 91,522 ft

Mainly MTB with a few commutes. Damn my busy life.

Best year for a while, no commuting mileage, lots of enjoyable mtbing from the door. Some nice road riding done too but a higher proportion of mtb riding which has been great. Hoping to get close to 3000 miles and some nice trips away. Baby arrives end of Jan so next year might be…different!

I thought it might spur me into some late season action to try and salvage my 2017 stats 😆

Got our club “Legbreaker” in a couple of weeks, followed not longer after by the club hill climb. I have very low expectations.

Nowhere near as much as I’d like to.

Distance 2,306.7 km

My MTB has been out once this year, for a 5 mile pootle round Salcey Forest with my 8 year old daughter.

Since retiring at Christmas
2053 miles
189505 ft of climbing
104 miles longest ride bikepacking over 2 days
and hopefully another 100 miles this Sunday in the Manchester 100

Distance 5,659.8 mi

Looks like a lot, but it’s all to work and back, actual riding for pleasure has been woeful, 260 miles on my bike I got in march, I think I managed 2 rides before that so less than 300 all in. I’ve not even been ill, just a combination of lack of enthusiasm and crap weather have stopped me.

Nope, LittleMissMomos arrival in January has really curtailed my time to ride bikes, just 544kms covered so far this year.

Ridden once this year on a 10 mile XC loop. I moved to a city and don’t have my bike with me. I need to figure out how to store it and how to get to Epping from Islington.

50+ rides, 80,000ft, 1200 miles or thereabouts.

Nothing to write home about compared to others here, except that I’ve done the vast majority of this with my 8yo son so I’m far more proud of him than of my own efforts 🙂

And the year ain’t done yet…!

I’ve got 8 sprogs.

😯 Crap TV reception where you are?

Anyway, back on topic, I’ve done more in the previous year than ever before (probably combined!)

Didn’t start using strava properly until April though, and I still forget to turn it on but I average 50 miles a week, commuting and mtb, done 2 45+mile off-road sportives, hit the north, singletrack7 and torq 12:12. Next event is the relentless 24hr. All solo.

This time last year a lap of the stainburn red loop (1.4km, <100m climbing) was not an inconsiderable effort.

A good year so far. Mostly road and commuting, but a fair bit of mountain biking thrown in.

Distance: 9,069 km
Time: 370 h
Elevation: 108,929 m
Rides: 195

August was not a great month for me though, starting off with splitting my chin open at ‘Ard Rock and followed up by a bunch of things that kept me off the bike at weekends. Meant that I failed on my personal aim of a century ride per month – in fact, I even failed on the metric century per month. I did a 210 mile ride in July though, so not beating myself up about it too much!

Been a good year so far 4572.6 miles, my target is 6000 miles a year and should hit that mid october, I’m usually struggling to hit it between Christmas & new year. When I hit the traget I’ll go for 10,000km, then 7000 miles which might be a bit optimistic but we’ll see.

Trying for a 1000 mile month this month.

Bit of a disaster. The year started ok, march to april was dry and managed a few routes I’d wanted to try for a while. Knackered my back at the end of april and was off the bike for 5 or 6 weeks. Back on for a couple of weeks then away on hols for a fortnight. Back for 3 weeks and fell off cycling to work and have had my wrist in a splint for 3 1/2 weeks. Meh.

3-4 times a week over the summer and slowly decreasing as the weather gets bad to 1-2 times a week.

Probably averages out at 2-3 times a week..

Plus a trail center or big wilderness visit once a month/every other month.

I only ride park so my vertical feet stats are through the roof!

By year started well, mainly due to Zwift and the surprising amount of fitness I gained from using it a couple of times a week. Did my fastest ever century on the road bike in April then due to a combination of family life and work the riding went off a cliff and I’ve ridden about 10 times since early May.
Perversely I always have less time to ride in the summer but this year was particularly bad.
Due to have catheter ablation for my AF in a month or so that will probably write the rest of the year off for me.

According to Strava done 4388km and 94,958m elevation so far this year in a year where I’ve tried to make mountain biking my first priority but have been plagued by mechanical problems, wet weather and mud.

No, I am not even counting it is so bad. Second child, getting fatter, blah blah. I don’t have an excuse, just need to get back in the motivated state I use daily it be in.

Ride at Swinley and a Bfe waiting to be built up are making me feel more in the mood for it…

440km so far this year. Last year 4400km so it’s a poor year.

Been a pretty good year so far and it’s not over yet!

Rubbish year! Did nothing from September 2016 till June this year, got a new bike and have done 39 miles this year. Really enjoyed yesterday’s ride so hoping when I come back from holiday to get out twice a week.
No chance to ride next week gotta sort out last minute holiday bits.

does zwift actually count as real cycling…. I’m voting,….. naaahhhh 😛

I not looking at this years stats. 2016 had me chasing distance and height goals and I decided I wasn’t playing that game in 2017. I do know I’m well down on a few previous years though.

Distance: 1,551.6 km
Time: 135h 39m
Elev Gain: 10,667 m
Rides: 290

The number of rides is somewhat inflated by recording my commute. That’s two rides, totaling 7km, per day 🙂

Ten miles every day as a minimum. Usually another 10 during weekday lunchtimes. 2or 3 evening rides if about 20 miles during the week.
A bigger ride on Saturday and Sunday. I’d go mad if I didn’t ride.
No kids. No wife. No TV. No road bike.

Not that much. And I’m doing a 300km audax tomorrow. I think it’ll go well…

From Strava:

Rides: 174
Time: 329h 51m
Distance: 7,225 km
Elevation Gain:73,404m

The number of rides is somewhat inflated by recording my commute. That’s two rides, totalling a minimum of 56km per day

IMHO turbo trainers, Zwift etc. don’t count.

*full disclosure*

Some of my miles have been on an ebike 😯 😮

Was injured for 2 (separate) months though, so reckon it’s alloweable as I’ve only ridden it then
