What was your mileage this year ?

[twentysix by twentyfive]

Illness limited my attempts this last year to 2294 miles with no assistance and a further 201 on electric bikes, some of which wasn't assisted.
Shadow of my former self Hopefully 2023 will be better 🤞

6700 miles for me my best year by 7% the previous improvements being 14% and before that 22% (so I'm plateauing out). I'd like to crack 8000 but if Feb and December are carp again I can't see it happening. 102 rides @ 65.7m 12.81mph average.

Just under 3500, would have been more but recovering from cancer slowed me down a bit,

Kudos in that case. And best wishes going forward…..👋

Probably my lowest in the last 15 years. Couple of covid bouts and a hefty dose of CBA. The norm is 8-10k a year.

3901 miles (6279km) which is about 30% down on 2021.

Highest ever year for me, a shade over 10,000 miles. Very few commute miles so chuffed to hit the target I'd set. As others have said, autumn and winter were a real slog with a lot of rain and the long cold spell. Also got Covid in November but was only off the bike for a week and managed 1,050 miles in December.

Not sure that was particularly good for me as felt pretty exhausted all month and still do! But will be taking it a lot easier this year and prioritising family time (we're due to start fostering in a couple of weeks) and much shorter rides with Mini T...although he's keen on doing his first century before he turns 10 in November. Looking forward to having a year off from chasing an arbitrary distance goal and just riding for sheer pleasure!

Pretty low for me. Started well but petered out. In fact, due to a combination of things I was only doing one ride a month by the last 2 months, and that was a 100 miler for the century a month challenge. I did, however, make ample use of an ingenious mechanism that I own that enables cycling to be simulated indoors.

 

[nickyboy]

About 4200 miles for me which is standard except for 2021 when LEJOG pushed the numbers up. Taken up MTB and about 500 miles are off road which are, of course, much harder than road miles

 

[Rickshaw Phil]

4016 recorded miles for 2022. Better than the previous year so I'm happy with that, especially as I seemed to struggle with motivation earlier in the year and lost a couple of weeks while the summer weather was good due to covid followed by a bee sting that inflated my face.

I bet you’re exaggerating, you’ve rounded that up.

Where have you been hiding ?

The last bit I remember was you trying to find your stolen cycle !

Never did get that back. Dipped in and out since then.
