how many feet do you climb per mile ridden????

[mattobrien]

About 24 for me in hilly Suffolk

 

[Davehateshills]

Well for the one who hates hills, its 42ft per mile. i clearly need to move down South....... then again!

 

[jifdave]

almost exactly a year later and i've cycled much much further but still came out at 46ft per mile... strange

 

[Steve Saunders]

8300 miles so far this year, and it's currently around 34ft / mile. about 30-40% of that is the 40 mile commute (2-3 times a week) that has about 1100ft both ways so that takes the average down quite a bit. Generally weekend rides are 50+ ft/mile.

 

[addictfreak]

A lot of illness this year has kept my rides fairly flat so currently 32.46ft per mile

 

[jifdave]

to put it into some context, laurens ten dam is 79.81, pinot is 102.27

 

[MisterStan]

13.83 for the year. Gotta love the fens.

 

[jowwy]

47.59 per mile - average distance per ride is 40miles

 

[HLaB]

If I build up enough courage I'll climb the hefty 26.4ft/ per mile (296ft in 11.2miles).

 

[helston90]

My commute to work is 64.51, little less on the way home. Shut up legs.

 

[HLaB]

My standard commute up until last Wednesday was a whole 22.18.

 

[Asa Post]

After I filter out the turbo rides...
72.88 feet per mile.

I thought that was pretty average, but it seems it isn't.

Yay, Me
