    Davo – Are you jealous or something? You seem to have a problem with me – I'd suggest looking at yourself first.

    Do you commute in a peleton? 26.7mph is still impressive in a group in my opinion.

    Why would I need to think twice? Just because YOU couldnt fit it into YOUR life doesnt mean that I cant fit it into MY life. Brilliant riding from the door makes it easier.

    Today I have done 30 miles on the bike. You?

    Thats 20 mile short of the 50 mile daily target to beat last years total! What was the event you were training for?

    Dasha – the ride I'm training for is in September this year. LEJOG in as short a time as possible.

    He is quite simply bulls hitting.

    How can he possibly have spent so long cycling when he's clearly on here talking cobblers every waking hour. Those hours when he isn't taking cobblers, he's thinking of another stupid name for himself, to enable him to be taken seriously for another 30 seconds before he starts being an arris again…

    LEJOG in as short a time as possible.

    Surely 4 hours should have it covered by a rider of your, ahem, calibre…

    You'll do it in a couple of days no problem.

    Dasha – that's the kind of ballpark we're looking at.

    3,850 miles on the Garmin, plus 25 or so 25 mile xc races, plus 2 24s, E6 and D2D and a few rides I forgot the Garmin on…

    Probably about 5,000 total.

    As food for thought a full time pro cyclist will cover in the region of 20000 to 25000 miles per year training and racing.

    I think his miles are a little shorter than most of ours. Remember he has also driven a million miles in a few years at the ridiculous average that he has – and all without breaking the speedlimits.

    Glupton – you do talk some utter tripe and thats another one.

    Milage for me – dunno 🙂 between 2500 and 5000 at a guess – few weeks of less than 50 miles but few of more than 100

    Only 18mph then, none stop for 48hrs. Who sponsors you, you're obviously an extremely talented athlete, has Mr Brailsford been in touch!? 😯

    2600 on the bike and less than a 1000 with the car.

    Dasha – to answer your question about sponsorship – Adidas.

    Prob somewhere between 4k-5k, some of which has been ridden with the artist formerly known as Glupton 😉

    Judging by this thread plus previous posts on the mileage you drive I'm assuming you have some kind of condition that multiplies everything by 10.

    So, I guess you'll be telling us next its 30 inches 😆

    Excellent. What races did you do for them last year. Do you ride in a team. Where is your homepage

    Smee

    Dasha – none. THere are various types of sponsorship. No and I don't have a homepage. Having family in very high places in a company has great benefits.

    when i was a student i did about 10k a year …

    this year ive done about 5-6k through injury and giardia.

    some with glupton though – 300km in 13 hours with 4000m climbing and 200k in 8.5

    surrounded by idiots you are starting to appear to be the new kaesae! all you need is a great line in rodent based insults and you are sorted. 😀

    but seriously don't listen to the naysayers, I say good on ya and well done you're very special.

    Thats seems like a real waste of talent, can't you get these highly placed company people at (presumably Adidas) to create a team built around you, it could be called "Team Mendacity"

    Prob about 3500 miles & something like 300,000 ft of vertical. I cant compete with the OP 🙁

    I'm not sure what I did this year – less then previous years no doubt, but I went about 6 months without a cycle computer so can't really estimate. Lost a bit of weight due to becoming more or less veggie and doing more running though.

    Goan – with that sort of mileage in the legs you and your partner really should have beaten me and stuatie_c at 10 More in Moray and grabbed the glory of 4th spot….. 😆

    S_F – that sort of mileage makes a diesel engine – at moray i needed a turbo petrol.

    Hat's off, fella. Pretty sure Pro's don't notch up those kinda distances or speeds. Or even need to. You are clearly self-employed with no family commitments.

    8,648 road-miles for me this year. And that doesn't include racing or anything off-road. Can't imagine where I could have fitted in more cycling without giving up my job or suddenly becoming single.

    Chapeau.
