Come by mid-morning, and you'll get a free lunch thrown in. We can use the afternoon to parade our wares back to yours (coincidentally giving me the final 20 I need to close the year on target) :smile:

as much as a free lunch sounds absolute brill... I need 98 miles to get my 10,000. If the weather is as bad tomorrow as it has been today then I'm not going to reach it, and mid morning thursday will be fine... if the weather is good tomorrow, then I have 2 days to do the 98... so will have to be afternoon mateypeeps..

Just checked the car fuel records; I have done 12,000 miles on the bike and my car has done 6,237 miles, although some of them were James using it rather than me (perhaps 1000). So I am doing well overall with the car/bike ratio.

It just so happens, too, that most of the car miles for the second half of this year are driving the bike to start a group cycle ride somewhere...

Well done there AH... time to visit your local cafe for some some cake :biggrin: as you've earned it.

I didn't do any cycling today I at least managed to do some fairly strenuous work, dropping the 'box on the Exige, so hopefully I can get some miles in tomorrow...
:cold::cold::wahhey:
...150miles in 2 days is a possibility but I duno if it'll just shunt me back to square one again.

I'm going to aim to double up, so 10k miles here for 2010

My goal for 2010 is fewer miles - I'm wavering between 8,000 for the year or 9,000. I may start at 8,000 and see if that seems a bit too few (that's about 22 per day).

My second goal is to completely strip down my trike in January and do a complete fettle/clean. I've never done anything like that before but it is necessary after cycling in the snow/salt. I may discover I'm missing some tools whilst I do it so might end up with a day or two off the bike (don't want to use James's trike as it's very clean and about to go up for sale).

You could aim for 8760 miles ie 1mph average.

Well done on the 12,000 miles btw. I know you were right down to the wire. I completed my 10,000 miles on Monday but was well on top of things by mid-December so have been taking things easy and avoiding the stress of having to go out when the roads were icy. And all 10,000 have gone to yacf on bikejournal, so I'm a double interloper here. Sorry folks.

Absolutly fabulous AH, really chuffed you made it. I've been off the bike as you can see for a while after a nasty fall on ice, should hopefully back after a few more days.:cheers:

I got my road bike in june and set a target of 2k for the year end, shall up this target to 5k for 2010. As I don't commute and work away a lot during the week I don't think I would have enough time to aim too high.
