I set out to do 4000 miles, managed to get that done and then went for 6000 miles and despite crashing into a van and breaking the bike and then having the replacement stolen, I think I may just do it! So next year I think 8000miles.

You've left me miles behind mate, well done on keeping at it.

Cheers, first year enthusiasm has kept me going, the real test will be doing it again next year.

My target increased from 11,000 to 12,000 to 13,000km as the year progressed which looked very easy at the start of November.
But 12 commute days lost due to illness has left me with needing 1000km in December, 64km per commute day.
Straight forward enough if the weather plays ball, but will definitely plan some leisure rides during the Christmas/New Year holiday period to make the target easier.
My motivation for reaching 13,000km was is to reward myself with a nice Shand road bike but that plan is on hold until my employment status is resolved next year.

I'm never sure that targets are a good idea. I'm unlikely to reach my MCL target this year - again, too many other things getting in the way, plus an illness and an injury, but nearer this year than last. I have managed to reach other targets on the bike though, one of which I value much more than any MCL target mileage.
 
Well that was me reached my revised, revised, revised, etc target today without realising until now, 14,500 miles; I should reach my revised, revised, revised, revised, ........ target of 15,000miles by the end of the year. My original target was the national average, 46.7miles or there abouts :rolleyes:

My original 5000 mile target is well past; the tri training and injuries has meant limited miles early in the year but I'm making up for it now.

Last year I hit 6640.2 miles - that's now where I'm aiming and I've 29 days to do it. 16 miles each day on average, 112 miles a week. That's do-able.
