126 Miles (in a week)

[Hip Priest]

I was just looking at my GPS app after this morning's ride (brrr...) and realised I'd done 126 miles in total this week. 3 x 33 mile training rides and 3 x 10 mile commutes. The highest weekly mileage I'd done prior to this is 80m, so I'm well chuffed. And knackered.

Still quite a bit off Eddy Merckx's 30,000 miles per year!

Well done ; Eddy Merckx might have done 30,000 per annum but that was his day job

Cheers man. Yes, I guess comparing ones self to the greatest ever cyclist is probably not the best idea for a recreational rider!

Good effort . My average about 60-70 a week but have done that milage on a number of occasions. Its one of those when you look at the computer and think 'Wow,where did all those miles come from?'.

3 x 33mile training rides in one week is quite impressive. I find the more cycling i do the easier it seems , even having just a week off makes the next longish run seem like a real ordeal.

Most I've ever done in one week was 305 miles, roughly 50 per day with 1 day off. Had a week's holiday, wife took kids to Grandma's for the week, what else was there to do but get out on the road

That sounds great. Mainly the 'wife and kids away for a week' aspect
