Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

You'll never get me to publicly state my body weight.

I rode 7000+ miles this year, considerably lower than my usual 10-12K. Oh well. Injuries.

My goal for 2013 is to not get hit by a bus.

You bike weenies make your New Year's Goals. God laughs. She's a Mets fan anyway.

Currently at 230, post knee surgery and multiple injuries in 2012. Goal is to get to 195-205 (where I was before all the injuries) and mileage goal is at least 2,500. I'll need to kick s#*t into gear to make it...

Best of luck to you. I can certainly relate with the knee surgery and having a rough 2012.

I'm thinking I'll take all entries until Jan 1. It will definitely become too unmanageable soon after. Will be happy to share the sheet though for others to copy and track their own. So far, a pretty good sample for healthy competition within the forum. Strava, Endomondo, Sports Tracker, SportyPal all do this for the individual, so this is really redundant on a one-off basis. With so much chest-thumping in here, the graph will tell the tale :-D Until Pcad divulges his real numbers, his assertions are vaporware.



Mwahahahahahahaha....haha

I like this idea. I would appreciate the accountability as I am half way to my weight loss goal and have hit a plateau through the holiday season. I'm in.

Current weight: 245
Goal Weight: 185
Mileage Goal: 6,000

I'm a bit confused, this is for tracking your weight loss and mileage on a graph?

I'll join in anyway, currently ~165lbs - goal of ~155lbs would be nice, also taken into consideration that I won't be a toothpick skin and bones (I'm already lanky at 165)

As for mileage, I just follow my coach's plans on training peaks. About 15 hrs/week, give or take a few hours each way, 52 weeks/year, it should be around 20, 000+ km (12, 500+ mi). It'll be my first full year with my coach so my goal is to complete this!

I plan on counting them. Easier to pile on road miles than MTB miles, so as far as I am concerned they count!!

Currently 148.5, down from 200, and hope for 138.5 or so by May next year.

6500 miles and hopefully 250,000 feet of climbing.
