1 st 10,000 Miles

[spiderman2]

Been cycling for three years today ,just clocked up 10,000 miles on my garmin .

 

[totallyfixed]

Very impressed, very few manage that on their bikes.

Awesome effort @spiderman2. I have been on Strava exactly 2 years today. Started riding for first time since a kid.

I was pleased to see 3,533 miles completed, but your 10,000 wipes the floor with my effort.

Maybe my joke was too subtle.

Not for me, I thought it was (out of character) cheeky

Yup, too subtle. Required that people notice that the OP said "Garmin" not "bicycle".

I didn't notice that until I read your second post.

Suggest instead ...

10,000 miles on Garmin? Very few manage that on their bikes

Clumsy compared to yours? Sure, but most people aren't paying enough attention to allow posters to be that subtle.

then you need to step it up a notch. If you are only doing 3000+ miles per bike you are at @vickster's level. She sells bikes to save having to replace chain/cassette.

It's late and I haven't been out on the bike today, feeling yuk.

Well done on the weight loss!
Nevertheless, you need to cycle in bad weather also, cycling is about suffering

I know all about cycling and suffering.

Got a carbon bike with creaking BB

Only three years? Are you old enough to be on here unsupervised?

No - I got it and smiled.

However, you only gave the world 11 minutes to 'get it'.

More patience required.
