Are you a high roller?

[Tynan]

25 miles a day but 5 days a week, all year and done fast

style and pace should count too

 

[Breedon]

At the moment im doing just over 15 miles a day, so im a high roller?

 

[BrumJim]

15 miles a day? 7.5 each way? You are hardly getting a sweat on for that effort. Try moving further away...

 

[jonny jeez]

WOW...so many entrants...and so many new categories to add.

While we are adding.... I suggest we need to have a category for those on a slightly lower mileage commute, but who keep it up rain wind and snow.... 5 days a week.

...So maybe if you clock up over 100 miles a week by riding every day, we should include you in a "Hardcore Tonner" category all of your own

I'll re-assess the entrants and instruct the engraver accordingly!

The shield should be back from the engravers by tommorrow Morning -ish

Yes, that sounds fair - excellent thread, jonny.

edit: can you ask the engraver to put a space between 'Absinthe' and 'Minded'?

I'm a bit anal like that.

 

[D4v0]

28 miles a day, 4-5 days a week all weather.

 

[rh100]

Well my 2 mile each way hasn't made a category

How a about a Mini Roller category, runner up or Acolyte or something, just to keep us shorties happy

 

[Lazy-Commuter]

Can we have a "Hardcore Metric Tonner" please jonny? For those of us that do more than 12 miles a day in all weathers?

Or are we now getting perilously close to having more categories than entrants? It's all getting a bit PC and "everybody must have a chance" ..

 

[karlos_the_jackal]

26 miles a day minimum 3 times a week. should be working up to 4 next week and then full weeks from mid october.

The weather has not frightened me, i beat the weather.

I may have to extend my commute just to get up another category. Not that i'm competitive.

 

[jonny jeez]

just back from the engravers...



Plus, to ensure we didnt miss anyone out, attached spreadsheet with comments

How's SimonGalgut - currently at almost 11,000 miles for the year, and position 13 on bikejournal? He does I think a 50mile round trip commute 5 days a week, and is a weekend audaxer as well. Crikey!!

I'm at 5200 miles, and position 392. Makes me feel like a nothing compared to Simon.

Lovely work Jonny.

@BM: Mwoohhahhaaa. I'm ahead of you. 5,493.11 miles logged this year on cyclogs, and I only found the site in March!

Mind you, only 2193.82 of them were commuting miles, but that's still 149 times over Anerley Hill. It is *just* a hill, but one that gets better with each attempt.

 

[BentMikey]

LOL, I'm not surprised you're ahead of me mate. LEL and all that training! Mine's almost all commuting, and I must admit I've skipped Anerley Hill plenty, but then Biggin Hill has just as much climbing if not more, slightly less steep though.

 

[4F]

Cracking thread jonny jeez

 

[arallsopp]

Yes, there is an ugly bump around the end of July

On the plus side, training rides are past now, so I'm only expecting 1300 more commuter miles for 2009, plus a few FNRttCs. Maybe 1600 all in...

Assuming you keep hitting 600 odd a month, we should end the year about even.
