[Closed] How much climbing have you done this year to date?

My Garmin connect says

89,817 ft

Strava says: 42,346m so 138,930 feet. Less than Id have thought, ho hum.

65585m

123,924ft

89,639ft this year up to now (inc. road)

approx 375m a week, or a bit less than the average trail centre climb, to put it another way. 🙂

116,401ft in 1211.1 miles.

And I didn't ride at all January through to march.

keep in metres!!

239,731ft from February.

Just over 100,000ft from May.

just over 75000m

94,605ft since 1st Jan 2012

YTD = 150,528ft. V tired as I did 4k of those today 😉

Just shy of 190,000 ft, mostly on the MTBs too.

Well I've got 158k in Strava and I've logged almost every ride I've done except the Wales Coast to Coast which adds over 35k…

Edit: 59,000m

by eck, there are some big numbers in this thread. 😳

Strava says 66691M, or 218,800ft. That's not bad!

Might try and break 250,000 by the end of the year!

44,888ft since 1st of july

28,000m since march. August & September were near right offs too

YTD = 54413m

by eck, there are some big numbers in this thread.

That's what I was thinking as well. A lot of effort by some people.
More depressing personally is that my paltry 16000 odd metres includes the road bike.

just realised i put ft instead of metres! Mine is 54080 METRES

YTD = 54,111m
2011 = 75,469m I don't think I'm gonna beat that 🙂

according to garmin connect 80450 m / 263943 ft

No idea. I just ride till i've had enough then i go home...

That's what I was thinking as well. A lot of effort by some people.

To be fair, for the first half of the year I was riding on average 4 times a week and from the spring onwards 5-6 times a week (I have a commute where I can take in trails). So aside from a few big training rides, some endurance solos (12hr type things)/cx sportive/marathons, oh and the WC2C, none of my individual rides are overtly massive.

204,300ft this year (not incl commuting)

Just looked at my Strava and approx 54000 feet of climbing to date! Shocked!!

Nope because you didn't read my update, still one of the best 🙂

POSTED 11 MINUTES AGO # EDIT

This year so far 286,236 feet (87,245 metres) of climbing (so says my Garmin)

And still November and December to go yet! 😀 😀 😀

Hardly any. I don't ride XC any more, push up on DH stuff or get the uplift and I live in the East Midlands so all my road riding is pretty flat. I did Snowdon and some trail centres in March.

206,516ft since March according to Strava (MTB and road)

My figure is from March so missing 8 weeks 🙂

638,000ft climbing. This is since end of January, got garmin on 20th January and also misses out 3 weeks where garmin broke in June so sent away to get fixed. This included Glentress 7 so all in all about 1000 miles in 3 weeks, so about an extra 70000ft on top of that. Might crack the 1 million feet barrier 🙂

100000ft ish, but I only ride once a week or so on average, so I imagine one would do more without much effort.

100,144 ft.

Not bad for the flat south Englandshire

244,938ft and 3264 miles since March....

Oops, double post.

147,000 feet or 44,805m. Quite pleased with that!

only 144,000 ft (44k m) mainly commuting to work through the flat lands of the vale of evesham, in 4,300miles(7000km),
and 240 rides!

and that was with february off the bike in NZ

Yeh sure. 😆

Distance 2,352.5km
Time 138hr 27m
Elev Gain 56,124m
Rides 79

Average of 710.5 metres of climbing per ride.

Have I really only been on 79 rides this year? 😐 Defo need to get out more.

Actually, I got the Garmin towards the end of January, so add on 5/6 rides of about 20-30km each to that.

106,856m.

probably about 90k feet, but 25 of that was in 5 days in the Alps, really not been out enough this year.

Wouldn't believe any figure from any of those online app things. From a previous thread ages back, endomondo smooths things out a bit, everytrail just takes all the vertical differences between adjacent data points, and strava "made up" some altitude from somewhere (no clue where, because it wasn't in the raw gps file).

So my figure claims to be 30567m so call that somewhere between 15000m and 60000m and subtract whatever the altitude gain of about 45km worth of chairlifts would be.

245,000ft over 7,200 miles which is quite poor, but then I do live in the alps of London

Edit: Radogair, kudos indeed, 1m ft would be a good target!

Also a bit shocked, done 82304m since I bought my GPS in April. But I do live in Wales so it's difficult to avoid a bit of climbing! 😉

In old money, 615,000ft (barometric GPS, not smartphone), a bit over 8000miles. About 75/25 road/MTB.

162,526 ft, 1596 miles.
Around 101 ft per mile. 🙂

Very flat around here, apart from a week of riding in the Himalayas of course!

Count: 207 Activities
Distance: 6,689.72 km
Elevation Gain: 47,990 m

Cheers, Rich

257,057ft. No hills in the South...

166,285 metres so far. Off to Spain on Friday for a month of riding so that should bump up a fair bit too.

just in the interest of bringing the averages back down to earth a bit..

YEAR-TO-DATE
Distance 218.2mi
Time 32hr 3m
Elev Gain 24,613ft
Rides 13

I only joined in August and these figures should triple or quadruple once yunki Jr MkII starts sleeping through the night..

no sneaky roadbike miles there either BTW..

Easier to do more climbing on the MTB I find, road bike miles detract!

YEAR-TO-DATE

Found the previous thread, so based on my previous experiment of accuracy and trying to work out wtf online GPS apps do to data:

30567m == figure that endomondo reckons
73908m == estimate of what Garmin and Everytrail might report ( = max. possible figure from raw GPX data)
103106m == likely figure that Strava might report

Maybe I should go back to Strava 😉

(minus the amount of altitude gained due to Morzine lifts)

My Garmin [500] and Strava pretty much correlates, ~5% difference

143664m or 471339ft that's living in the Lakes for you.

143664m or 471339ft that's living in the Lakes for you.

Yeah but surely you've pushed most of that right 😉 😛

hmm well since mid may have only climbed 20525m, thats only for rides i use the garmin for. Must try harder.

Total so far probably less than 50 miles on the road

Count: 70 Activities

That was a mother of a decent to hit that max speed 🙂
Looks like my garmin is lying to me

Mark Weir (ex santa cruz and now cannondale) rode 1,040,000ft in 11 months in 2007(he got married and so missed a months riding)
820,00ft off road on his VP Free or nomad and 220,000ft the road.

159,606ft but not been able to ride much the past few months due to my mum being ill. Back on it big style from tomorrow though.

Elev Gain 60,366m

78000 feet in about 2400 miles. I've got another 100 miles and maybe 5000 feet to upload from last week.

Not ridden as much as I'd hoped due to being clobbered by a driver in May.

Count: 106 Activities
Distance: 2,204.35 mi
Time: 247:41:31 h:m:s
Elevation Gain: 74,536 m
Avg Speed: 8.9 mph

Max Speed: 162.2 mph
Max Distance: 100.38 mi

I hope the Elevation is more accurate than the Max Speed !!!

I have absolutely no idea ) I have a fair idea of hours on the bike but that's all.

Total elevation gain includes all those little rollers on the road / trail doesn't it.
Earlier last yearI was 'training' for a big Alpine 3-day road ride and used a local 100+ mile / 2700m loop as a regular benchmarker. I looked up what the all the medium/large climbs added up to and it was only an alpine col's worth, about 1100-1200m. The rest was just rises in the road, many of which you can roll most of, or power up in the big ring using momentum of the downslope before it - they may wear you down but they're not 'climbs' in my mind )

However

Nov/Dec going to be feet up months post hernia op

79,000m to date this year
Biggest climb 1588m
Biggest MTB ride 221km
Biggest road ride 211km

Nov/Dec off the bike (hernia op)

79,342m to date this year

or in old school

260,308 ft

Not bad I thought.....

56624m since April - All off road. Rather chuffed 🙂

23.497m = 77,089ft in a lowly 77 rides 🙂

Usual excuses apply.
