How many riders do you see on your route?

[fossyant]

About 20-30 over 11 miles, either same direction or coming in the opposite direction. On the 20 miler route to/from work, less than 10, as most of it is country, and off the main commuter routes. More cyclists nearer the City though.

Depending on what time i leave i can see anywhere from 3 to 10. i live near a business park and the route i take is a prime shortcut from irlam/salford way.

Just thinking of this thread as my new Mavic Fury Yellow cycle shoes have arrived.

SO if you see some cyclist on the Mile End Road (CS2),or in Londinium with bright yellow cycle shoes,riding a fixie,it may be me.Gis a wave.

I doubt I could go for a single ride unless in the middle of the night and not see a cyclist. For a start there are usually at least 4 or 5 (that I noticed) in the playground (excluding children).

About 5-10 each way, nearly all commuters braving the dual-carriageway.

Yes, theres a bike path elsewhere but tbh it's more dangerous riding down it due to isolation and the area it's in than mixing it with the traffic.

Even if I don't go for a ride and I'm just working in the garden I usually see a number of cyclists go by and I'm not on a main road.

None in the winter, in the summer on a busy day 2 other people might commute by bike. The funny thing is the commute from the city to work is 6 km straight and no hills a very easy ride. I never ceases to shock me that so few people in our city take their cars on such short and direct trips (In the winter I get that cycling is not for everyone).

How did you do 121 commutes to work?

I do about 3-4 each week, having started last May. Including parking costs it saves about £10 a time - and I'll need to do another 160+ to break even.
