Congrats!
I've been slacking off lately and I'm still at around 2800. But I have a brand new bike and, with our climate, I can try for 3500 by the end of the year.

Good for riders in East Coast where the weather plays an important part on cycling days. Are you including riding the stationary bike?

Rats! I'm just 50 short of that 4,000 mark after today's ride. I don't count trainer "miles".
Nice work.

My Strava count might roll over 3,000 by the end of the year.
However, I only joined in mid-June.

Nice work! I'm just coming up on 3,000. I did manage 600 so far in November, but it's getting cold and windy out there!

Congrats!
I am hoping to keep better track of my ride data through the purchase of a Garmin (ding ding). I lost quite a bit of information by tracking through the cell phone and battery issues, using a cyclocomputer and accidentally resetting it, twice...

I just got a Garmin 500 back in August and started using Strava. I wish I'd done it when I started cycling last year.
