Bragging 1701+ for the first quarter!

I have 1701 of commuting miles this first quarter! I've doubled (860) last month's miles (423), and will beat last year's best month totals (885.84 set 5/03) on the commute to and from work tonight. Technically, my commute home will be after midnight, but I put it on today's totals, since it was my work day commute, and it helps the totals for the month. This also approximates my miles for the year at 6807. But summer is just around the corner, and I have some travel and some centuries to do yet, so I could be closer to 10K for the year. I hope!

Anyone else wanna brag about their mileage for the first quarter?

Haha, I'll have 1702 miles!!!








Just kidding. I'm not sure what my miles are, I usually don't keep track. I average about 5,000 annually by commuting though, and probably 700-1000 miles mountainbiking. I'm probably a little under 1,000 or so this year so far though since I've been out of town for month...

Woo, I’m impressed. I’m sitting at 1260. Guess I could move so it would be further. Keep up the good work naisme!

I have ridden 48 times for 2727km/1704miles. A mate of mine just past 7000km/4375miles since Jan 1st, I believe he has only missed one day riding this year. He is aiming for 12,500miles for the year. Depressing!

CHEERS.

I've only gone 932 miles so far, but I've also had an injury recently that put me out of commission for the last week.Had that not happened, I would have been slightly over 1,000
