2016 winter progress

[The_Weekend_Report_Guy]

Well.. Well... Let me see... I have this set in km... Not impressed by my numbers.. 575 km.. But I am hoping to turn this around now that we are adjusting to our new home..
I have set a goal for 15.000 km for the year so fingers crossed i will get there without issues.. But the 100.000 elevation (meters) I believe will be reached without many issues..
Goals and plans listed somewhere here http://theweekendreportisborn.blogspot.com.es

Up to 923 miles so far this year. Marginally ahead of last year, but last years good base mileage was scuppered by 6 weeks off the bike with pneumonia. Fingers crossed I stay fit and healthy this year and the winter base can be taken advantage of.

Only 216 so far which is 137 down on this time last year.

Reasons as follows: elbow accident (mountain hiking), snotty nose/sore throat/ hacking cough/feeling knackered (kissing Lovely Wife when she was 'bugged' - worth it though) and bad weather (jet-stream fluctuations).

So many reasons not to cycle.

Did 2400 last year - will see how it goes this year. No big pressure to do more. Just making it through another year matters more.

Zilch on a turbo/roller

Road miles - tad over 2,500

Slacker!

223 miles so far, this is my first winter cycling and it really has taken me by surprise just how difficult it has been.

 

[Mike!]

599 Miles so far this year (don't own rollers or a turbo so all road) which is 599 miles more than last year when I didn't get going until April

Well, I'm still in both the imperial and metric century a month challenges, but apart from my rides for these, and a bit of Brompton tootling I've not found time for any other rides. The weather hasn't been too bad in my neck of the woods, I've just been too busy.

I have misplaced the cable to my Garmin, and have not bothered to look for it. Instead of trying to ride faster I have just been riding. I think I enjoy it more when I'm on the bike that way, but I miss the sense of achievement when strava shows you were fast that day.

794 miles and about 59,500 ft climbing (I live on top of a mountain) mainly commuting

Good amount of climbing there!

Thanks! I live at about 1300 ft and work at sea level, so don't have a lot of choice. I let it put me off commuting for years, but built up slowly and now do it most days without even thinking about it. Three years ago I'd never have thought I'd be doing what I do now, in fact it's by far the best bit of my day

I have just missed 2 weeks due to a cold but back on it this week. progress below for you, and well done on beating the hell out of last year.

 

[Elybazza61]

Well up on last year already despite 9 days off with the flu but the rides over Christmas and New year doing the Rapha fesive 500 have more than made up for it.

Still down on this years 12,000km target but should make that up when the regular commuting starts.

 

[martint235]

1,060 miles all done outside (what is this turbo thing that people mention and why is it anything to do with cycling?). A massive improvement on 2014 and 2015 when I was around 400 miles at this point. My average speed is up a touch too.

Next month is a super busy month, with no free weekends. I've had to book time off work for my imperial century ride. Hope I'm lucky with the weather.
