Doubt I'll be riding much again this year, so here are my stats for 2015.
Nearly a thousand miles down compared to 2014 as I was mainly riding to work rather than for fun this year, but I still managed to get out a fair few times!

2015:
896.3 miles
70h 38 mins
23,520 feet
117 rides

2014:
1843.3 miles
151h 46 mins
62,861 feet
144 rides

I clicked over 3510km for the year yesterday. Happy with that as I started cycling to work at the end of April. Should be able to hit 5000km next year.

Original target was 2015 miles, now up to 3961, planned to double it and only a Saturday's worth of miles to go......... :-)
5200 next year, 100 miles a week average is a good plan i think ! Must get the feet climbed up though, here on the Somerset levels it's not easy to do !

Just gone through my annual target of 5,000 miles for the year, so another month to get a few more easy miles in before target reset time

243 this year compared to 976 last.

2013 was a good year at 2028 miles. Something i'd like to get back to as the weight has certainly not reduced since i stopped riding.

An improvement on last year by 17 miles, according to strava I did a total of 18 miles in 2015.

Definitely want to get above 50 miles in 2016.

I was hoping for 10,000km and 100,000m climbing for the year. Currently sat at 9,118km and 91,216m. I'm travelling so much in December that I don't think I'm going to make it. 2016 goals will probably 50% higher though.

That 50% extra from one 2 week ride eh wink

Similar boat. 8,924km & 149,201m Not so fussed about the mileage hitting something annoying like 9600km but I WILL hit my 100 miles climbing (161,000m)

smile Probably a bigger start to the year but then tailing off dramatically in September.

100 miles of climbing is impressive.

I've never thought of my climbing in terms of miles. So I did the sums and it turns out that I'm close to 47 vertical miles worth of climbing so far this year. More than the average rider round my way in terms of feet climbed per mile, but way behind you, Richard.

To put it mildly. Ascending that far officially gets you well into space (a relatively easy 100km or 62mi).

Maybe there needs to be a new badge of honour like Everesting for 'getting into space' within a calendar year? Astronauting?

My first year on Strava (might be my last, perhaps) so had to set a goal. Which was outer space, 100km. Passed that in the summer so had to revise it.

I haven't set myself any sort of goal for next year yet, this I need to sort out. It will probably be a specific ride target instead of chasing stoopid numbers though.

6118, just short of my 6544 from last year. No more riding for me this year, just broken my foot. I'm gutted.

9,654 miles, 365,213 ft of climbing and 524 hours in the saddle so far, but I am missing circa 300-400 miles when my garmin decided to crap it silicon brains all over my handlebars and top tube!

Hope to hit 10k for this year but will be 2k down on last year - ah the horrors of employment!

Mine has been slightly woeful...

Distance 1,921.2 mi
Time 191h 41m
Elev Gain 62,136 ft
Rides 151

I'll rack up around 12 miles mountain biking tomorrow, and 60 riding to work next week, so will use this as an excuse to take a bike to the inlaws with me at Christmas to cover at least the remaining handful to get me over 2,000 miles for the year. smile

Was aiming for 10,000km this year but looks like it will be nearer 9000 km as I am lacking the inspiration to do more that the 10 mile commute at the moment, I hope the new year brings more more motivation
