Almost a third of the year gone already!
I set myself a target of 100 miles per month for 2014.
Not much compared to many on here, but it'll do for me.

Current figures for 2014:

624 miles / 1004km distance
24,777 feet / 7552 metres elevation
53 hours moving time
Longest ride of 2014 so far - 45 miles / 72kms.

Trying to get a bigger % of my miles on the bike rather than in the car.
Done 5.5k miles in the car so far in 2014 - more work to be done then. hehe

How about you?

Bump!

Another month has gone by, so how are people doing for 2014?

46 rides
767 miles / 1234 km
29531 feet / 9002 metres elevation
65 hours moving time
Longest ride - still 45 miles/72 km so far

Hoping to get the bike out for some commuting miles soon with a new job, but a month away in the summer will cancel out those extra miles I'm sure!

Big bump.
How are people doing then?
I haven't ridden since the middle of July due to holidays and work.
Still on for my target of 1200-1500 for the year though.
Must get a few miles in or I'll forget how to ride before long!

76 rides
1183 miles / 1904 km
42303 feet / 12894 metres elevation
98.5 hours moving time
Longest ride - 60 miles / 96 kms

Useful stat is evelation gain (feet) per distance (mile). Mine is 76 feet per mile. What's yours? (This figure will be skewed if you've cheated and logged turbo 'miles').
Mine is a measly 36 feet per mile.
Really don't like hills. hehe
I also log my walking around the place and have managed 65 feet per mile doing that!

BUMP!

My target for the year was 1200 miles, with 1500 being an outside chance.
Current stats are better than expected, although commuting certainly helps.
Mostly short and often for me now though compared to the longer weekend rides earlier in the year.
Only one ride over 25 miles in a month or more.

116 rides
1592 miles
54590 feet elevation
130h 32 moving time
Longest ride - 60 miles - will not get near that again this year!

Cheers and yes, it certainly does.
I managed to cycle most weekends all the way through last winter.
Hoping to do a decent amount of commutes each week unless the weather is truly awful.

BUMP.
Definitely added a few miles in the last month.
Not long to go now.
I started the year with a target of 1200 miles, but given my current number it seems rude not to aim for 2000 miles by 31/12. smile

Rides: 140
Mileage: 1822.1 miles
Elevation: 62,559 feet
Moving Time: 150 hours 15 mins

I think it's to do with the Strava stat measuring the biggest individual climb within a ride rather than biggest elevation gain overall in one ride.
My "biggest" according to Strava is 990 feet which was Cragg Vale on the TDF route.
My largest elevation on a single ride was 2900ft in comparison.
