Commuting - What is your mileage this year commuting?

For me 2000 miles, not a bad sum for me. But im sure there are people here who put much more. So lets hear it. List miles and what type of bike. . and hopefully a pic of your steed

2000 miles ona de rosa nuovo classico in the d.c. metro area

I am 180 miles shy of 3000. I should hit that by Nov 6. I am shooting for 3500 for year end. East to west across Dallas on a flat bar road bike with 32C tires, a rear rack and panniers(sometimes).

According to the site I log my commutes to, I've logged about 1500 miles commuting.

I'm at ~3600 miles now. I should crack 4k by Christmas, (the office is closed for the last week of the year), but I'd like to hit 4500. It all depends on how nasty the weather gets. When it is too harsh out there, I take the train part of the way and it cuts my miles in half, (while adding 40 minutes :rolleyes:).

The first half of the year, I was on Rocinante, ('83 Austro-Diamler mixte), but my fathers' day gift was Doña Molinera, ('08 Fuji Touring).
Here are Rosie and Molly:

I'm at about 1600 miles total. I didn't own a bike until April, and don't commute the whole distance every day.

Wow, If I commuted the full distance every weekday, and rode the other few errands that I do, it would be over 9000 miles per year. Yikes! :eek: I don't think I can do that yet.

My two bikes are here:

2900 miles so far. I am going all-year, so I got an early start. It's all flat though. Completely, utterly, old-railbed flat.

2,900 so far. We will have to see what November and December brings.

1701 commuting miles in 162 days in 2008 (10.5 miles round trip) out of 7000 total miles. Probably 35 more commuting days in 2008 with another 368 commuting miles.

Riding either a 23 year old Raleigh Team USA Sport Tour or 14 year old Raleigh M-60 rigid mountain bike.

I'm at 15514, mileage on Jan 1 was 12541, so I'm almost exactly to 3000 miles.

It's interesting that I'm the 4th person in this thread to be almost exactly at 3000 miles.

I don't really track it but I am pretty sure I am right around 3k also. Avg in the ballpark of 300/month anyway.

As of this mornings ride to work, I am at 3686. I should end up just shy of 5000 for the year.

It's interesting that I'm the 4th person in this thread to be almost exactly at 3000 miles.

Maybe much less than that, probably don't spend time online obsessing about it, much more than that, too busy riding to goof off online about it.

I'm just one or two commuting days shy of 1000 miles for 2008. Thing is, I've been waking up late for the past two weeks and haven't commuted once during them. Gotta fix that and hit 1k before the weather really starts giving me an excuse not to try. :)

1934

Used to be close to 3000 a few years ago, but as I work more from home now it's about 2000 tops.

well. I don't have a cyclo computer, but I calculate around 1600 for the year on my commute.

almost 900 which is good for me. I hope to break 1000 before end of Dec

4 miles so far, but I'm hoping to get into a regular routine. Due to limitations of roads and geography, my commute is 10.5 miles by car or 88.5 miles by bike (each way). So I am hoping to commute 3 miles by bike to a ferry. It's much nicer than the subway.

Total miles, so far: 893.06 miles.
Total Greenhouse Gas emissions not created: 867 pounds.
NAVG Gal. - National Average Gallons of fuel saved: 44.65 NAVG Gal.

3,200 miles from my 23 mile r/t commute, roughly 75% of my workdays.
Traveling on business most of next week, so my October is effectively done.
Traveling the last week of December too, so will probably end up around 3,800 just from commuting.

Miles? Why use miles when you can use kilometers! Not only does it make you feel like you are going further, your speedometer lets you feel like you are going faster! I logged just under 5000 km (3100 miles) in my first year of commuting (Sep '07-Aug '08). Hopefully, I can bump it up a little bit to around 6000 km this year. About 2/3 of that was on my Breezer Uptown 8 and the other third was on my old Specialized Epic Pro carbon.

All miles on my Surly Cross-Check, both commuting and distance recreation rides, so I don't know what just my commuting mileage is.
My total mileage is just over 3400 as of yesterday, but that includes a few metrics, a bunch of centuries, a couple double metrics and a double century.

My total miles for the year will tip over 6600 this weekend. Subtract out about 1,000 for brevet/pay/social rides leaves around 5600 miles for commuting. I'm pretty happy with it considering the sprained ankle in march and broken wheels I recently had which totally discouraged me for a couple weeks. I was hoping to get 8k but might fall short if I don't pick it up.
Bah.. and ZERO weight change since March when I got the below!!! boooooooooo!

No I don't usually commute with the flag and I have since cleaned up that wiring mess up front. I get to meet the owner of Bacchetta on Saturday had to make the bike look all nice :)

No computer on my commuter, but I log the days I commute, I'm at about 2200 for the year to date.

Surly cross check SS - best bike ever.

Some impressive miles guys!

Im hoping to hit 10,000 miles next year... yeah right :)

It seems like 3000 miles a year is the avg for bike commuters, thats a whole lot of miles on a bicycle.

A bit over 3500 for me

I do about 55 miles weekly to work & back...so I'd say about 2500 miles a year?

I ride all my bikes to work at different times depending on my mood that morning, like if I wake up late, I take the road bike, and if I eat a big breakfast, and feel sluggish, I take the 3 speed...etc.

so no exact #'s but it's close to that

I just started riding in July and I have about 600 miles so far (18 miles round trip). Hope to have a lot more next year.

My miles are all kind of mixed together but about 2200 total.

Maybe much less than that, probably don't spend time online obsessing about it, much more than that, too busy riding to goof off online about it.

And yet, you posted, so, in essence, you did.......

I definitely enjoy talking about it at work when I can't go about goofing off on a bike!

i've done about 6,700 miles this year so far, but only about 1k of those were commute miles.

I think there was a thread on this a week or two ago? I don't track my miles these days so I did some arithmetic and came up with some sort of estimate. Too lazy to look it up. :D

I've got 4670 so far. Hoping to get 6k in this year daily commuting year round on my 93 Gary Fisher Utopia. Full dressed with Front/rear rack, panniers, lights, fenders w/homemade mudflaps, the whole nine yards. I use Nokians in the snow. This is the 2nd best bike I've had. The first was an Austro Daimler that I rode for about 11 yrs until the fork rotted out on me. Then I bought the Fisher. If this one falls apart then it's a Cross-Check. I love those Surly's

I feel like such a weenie. ~1,200 for the year so far. Of course, I am only 1 mile from school so it's not like my primary commute adds much mileage. Most of those miles are trips to friends' houses, grocery runs, etc...

1853 miles with a total of 94 days and counting, started in May.

Commute only is 1200 miles now since my work place moved closer to my house.

I don't drive and I don't keep track of which miles went where,but I'll be at 11,000 miles so far this year on my ride home tonight.Sounds like alot,but that includes 1800 miles of touring,and riding everywhere,not that hard to rack up the miles like that.All of those miles on a 30 year old bike that I bought brand new in 1978.

I'm coming up on 5000. All but about 100 or so are commute miles. All year, I've driven to work (25 miles rt) maybe 10 times.

I'm at roughly 1600 miles so far this year, no computer on the bike though - the season started in early April when the streets finally cleared up in Toronto, last winter was relentless! I'm inspired by some of the higher-mileage numbers posted, I guess I'll just have to move further away from work! Or not. Current doing about 15 miles RT on a mid-eighties Mielie road bike.

I was really hoping to exceed the 16,000 km I rode last year but an injury slowed me down quiet a bit and I have only managed to log 6000 km since March and prior to the injury rode 600 in January.

The new job sees me riding 40 plus km a day so my monthly mileage should be in the 1000km range and I should hit nearly 9000 km by the end of the year.

I was hoping to ride 20,000 km but we'll make that next year's goal.

5740 commuting miles this year including today. 9237 km

Next year will be a lot less. Soon, I am moving to a place only a mile from work.

1000 miles since June. I am moving further from work, so my rate should go up from about 40-50 miles per week to 100-120 miles per week.

A little over 4000 km this year with about 2 weeks left before it's too cold and the snow falls. Of that 4000 km, 1000 km were on my new Kona Jake which I bought in September.

I'm at 15514, mileage on Jan 1 was 12541, ....

Whew! I saw "15514" and thought, "My GOD! How long is your daily commute???" Oh, ok, now I see....

About 1600 so far I think (the computer's downstairs on the bike); I hope to hit 2000 miles before year-end.

I think I drove once all year. My mileage would be higher but the The Kid made me work from home a lot when she was younger (teething, sick, you name it).

At 1600 miles since I bought my bike in April, started commuting in May, and changed work sites to a longer commute and been commuting every day since August.

Figure I'll hit around 2000 by the end of the year.

909 miles as it stands today. I'm hoping to get another 91 miles in the next couple of weeks. I'm pretty proud of my self since it is my first year commuting. My commute isn't an easy one either-for me at my age(50 plus). 4 mile commute each way. About 600-700 ft total elevation change in both directions(I believe). And traffic is about as bad as it can get although for most of it I'm on a paved shoulder. Don't let that fool ya.

I was almost hit by a young mother last week who thought she'd get around traffic by driving a couple hundred feet up the shoulder and then she pulled me over and complained about not being able to see me because of the glare. I was kind of stunned and speechless. I guess I must have shaken her up when she just missed running me over. I'm a moving Target on my ride. What's makes it worse is that I have to keep an eye on some of the questionable looking pedestrians. I've also had people buzz me on purpose as well as yell things. This is just outside Philly on West Chester Pike.

Everyday's an adventure.

5348km or 3323miles. Not quite done yet but soon.

2029 miles commuting since April. 54 total trips, about 50% of the days that I'm at work. If I could eliminate the days I don't ride because of lazy, then that should get up to 75-80%. Hopefully get over 2500 this year, but we'll see about weather, plus I have couple business trips and a vacation in there...

Bike is a 1993 Specialized Rockhopper

I started riding to school in late August, with a round trip of about ten miles. I have only racked up 310 miles, as of today, but I am going for 50 miles a week so I am not far off.
