570 miles after my (short) ride this morning.

Not sure if I'll get a chance to ride tomorrow, but if I do, I should top out right around 600 miles.

About 700 miles. I'm surprised I've ridden as much as I did considering my injuries.

I can proudly say that at the close of 2011 I have 1,473 miles on my road bike and 135 miles on my mountain bike commuter for a total of 1,608 miles since July 15th. I am very proud of that because I never thought I would get back into riding. I am thankful for everything.

And I rode to the store this morning so I am finishing off with 1619.75

5257 so far on my 'bent, dunno if I'll go out one last time today because it looks like freezing rain. These miles were mostly towing a loaded cargo trailer around the Catskill region, have more on my hybrid bike that I ride mainly down in the city but lost track because the battery in my Specialized Comp died mid season.

Best wishes to all here on BF for many more miles of happinesss in 2012.

About 4,500 miles this year. I plan to bump that up a bit in 2012. My age is fighting against me, though.

2094 on road, 678 on trainer, guessing another 200 commuting on mt bike without computer...., so guessing about 2900. maybe if I ever make it to retirement I'll hit 10,000, that's inspiring.

With my ride today I ended at 2001.74 since March 21st (when I got a computer to accurately track miles). Next year I am going for 3000 at least.

Finished the year with 3,541 total miles. Not too bad considering I only had 80 miles total by the end of February.

Since I started keeping track last March 2436. Add to that the rides that I did not track and the rides before I started tracking and I am sure I'm a bit over 2500 miles. In 2012 I plan to exceed 3500. So far I've lost nearly 50 lbs. and almost 6 inches in the waist. My new ride should help.
