Well done :bravo: I'm still 13 miles short of that. The start of my year was pretty slow though (spent too much time doing my dissertation) and then bruised my ribs at the end of July, that's my excuse anyway :blush:

I had noticed you have been gradually creeping up on me... almost as bad as Topcat ;) This is my highest annual milage ever, helped along by moving an additional 5 miles away from work, in January. Done a fair few weekend rides this year also, so the distance has been ticking along nicely. Avg speed is still pants though... next year I will work on that!

I really need to get back commuting. Three weeks driving in (I need the car on site atm) has driven me nuts

Congratulations potsy on smashing through your '10 miles a day' average for 2011 3.5 months early, and good luck with hitting your new target of '100 miles a week'! :hello:

Cheers Colin, can't believe I missed the 10 mile a day target last year by 50 miles, this year has been so much better.

I am just about on track to do the other target, need a mild Nov/Dec though or I'll be struggling again, saying that I have got my studdy tyres this year but I'm dreading the first ride with them tbh, couldn't walk out there last winter and can't imagine going out on the bike in it :ohmy:

I didnt realise that potsy, I done my bit though riding with a work colleague we went to southport and back covering 81 miles so almost a sportive I guess.

well done on beating your target, just down graded mine to a realistic 6000... :sad:

with regards to the studdies. i've already had mine on and been riding around the estate on them, they're not as noisy as i thought they would be. i lost one stud but found it and it was easily re-installed. i'm planning on having them on from end of october thru to mid march if necessary. don't forget to do your 50 miles bedding in ride.

10 rides and 173.06 miles!!! Not counting pottering around to ths shop, bank etc. Pathetic, I know but got to start somewhere. Didn't start measuring until July, missed a few weeks for the summer holiday. 2012 will see a big step up.

Nice one Jay.

I am 219 miles away from my set yearly target of 8000 miles. So should reach that by next weekend.
Am going to change my 2011 target mileage to 10,000 miles, the same as the last 2 years.
I was meant to cut back on the cycling this year but that just doesn't seem to have happened..

Hear hear! I log my mileage on three different sites which give me three different totals due to rounding up & down, but I matched last year's total (around 6.3k) a few weeks ago, and 8k, rather than a 'if it goes really well' target (bearing in mind December means work, work and work with very little time for anything else), is looking perfectly achievable. Which is nice
