Non-commuters cyclists only.

How many leisure miles do you do in a year? Mine ranges from 1300 to 2000 miles depending on weather and motivation.

 

[Markymark]

Why can't I write that I do around 1,500 miles a year leisure riding on top of my 2,000 commuting?

 

[Fnaar]

Usually about 3,000. Roughly 500 of that will be commuting though. Depends on work patterns and so on.

 

[Brandane]

All my riding is for leisure and for the last 5 years has been averaging about 3400 miles per year. I'm expecting it to be down a bit this year though; sh!te weather in summer, house painting taking up too much precious "dry" time, too much work, motorbikes, etc. etc..

2800 Miles Leisure, 1700 Miles communting

 

[Simpleton]

Zero. All my riding is either commuting, riding audaxes, or training to ride audaxes. I can't remember the last time when I wanted to just go for a ride and have some cake. Riding has to have a purpose and the term 'leisure' is open to interpretation imo.

 

[cosmicbike]

About 2000 - 2500 miles

 

[vickster]

This year, just under 2400 miles. I don't think I've commuted at all. Will change next week though assuming my knackered back de knackers itself!

 

[ScotiaLass]

Around 2,000 - 2,500

 

[Oldbloke]

2,500 road miles and 500+ mtbing, should be more as I'm retired but so many windy (very) days this year got me off target.

 

[Mugshot]

If our commute is a minimum X amount of miles, but we extend it to Z amount of miles and Y is the difference between the two, are we allowed to say that the Y figure is leisure miles?

 

[vernon]

I've planned far more miles than I've cycled.

Currently sitting at 6294 this year, purely for pleasure..............although some days I'm not sure I would call it that!

I'll no doubt start tapering off once the weather changes for the worse. I don't mind rain or a slight wind but I won't risk snow and ice plus I don't find much pleasure in being frozen to the bone anyway.

Sort of the same issue here..

I was talking to a friend the other day about it.. Why are we always hammering?

 

[The_Weekend_Report_Guy]

No idea..!

For the year I am aiming at 10000 km.. Yeah I like kilometers better.. But as I mention before is a lot or almost all hammering..

Or training..
