No, O meant my placing was in the five figure bracket, not my mileage!

I`m only 12,281 places behind you - mind you, I`ve only been properly using Strava since the start of 2015!

I'm such a nerd, at first I thought you had written that web page/tool, which would be "not bad for a pensioner".
But also pretty good as a ride total
Edit: speaking of nerd, I notice it doesn't include Eddington Number amongst its metrics.

True, but 8th out of 46,000 is still pretty impressive
That was not intended to be a dig at all, merely stating a fact. I suspect that a lot of high mileage people will look at something like the toolbox, certainly a lot more than your average Strava newbie, so the numbers may not be too far off.

Depends on how many years it is counting. If it is just because you have loaded up more years of your cycling into Strava then it does not really say anything. If everybody using the tool has loaded the same number if years then it says something.

I think it's still pretty impressive. It would take nearly 40 years of commuting a 25 km round trip 48 weeks a year to beat this number. A tiny fraction of the people in the world will do anywhere near this much cycling in a lifetime.
Of course, Kurt Searvogel could knock out that distance in a couple of years .....
