Not a bad year. Majority of that will have been commuting and gravel rides, with a smattering of MTB and a little bit of road-riding.
I try to keep this kind of stuff hidden from Mrs HTO ... Just think of all the jobs/DIY I could have been doing instead 😳

Least amount of cycling I've done in 10yrs, moved area a couple years ago with not great from the door riding and after a rubbish very short ride in February, fell out of love with bikes/riding.
Replaced with some running and other bits and pieces. However, the bug is creeping back, with a "new to me" bike purchased just prior to Christmas and plans to get back out firmly back in my head, rides are going to be slow for sure and I shall imbrace the bimble.

~276 of those rides are commutes and a vast majority of the remainder are turbo rides, just five 60+ mile outdoor rides all year, it really wasn't the 2019 I thought I was going to have when things were going so well indoors from Nov 2018 to end of Feb 2019... But at least things are back on an upward slope again, if I can kick myself out of the four walls!

I don't log my general riding to the shops ect mileage, so that's me actually going out for a ride. Milage about 50/50 mtb road.
Why are people kidding themselves using kilometres ? Unless of course you actually live and ride on the continent.

~95% MTB, a few days of bikepacking in there and one road ride with a friendo.
61 rides, nearly all gravel
1300 miles
My worst for 11 years but that's what 2 young kids and a unsympathetic wife does.
The effect it's had on my physical and mental health has not been good. My new year's resolution as a co-owner of a bike related company is to ride more during traditional work hours.
Why are people kidding themselves using kilometres ? Unless of course you actually live and ride on the continent.
I do actually live in Spain 🙂
Only done about half the usual mileage this year, having lost my mojo somewhat. Really hoping I can get back into the swing of it next year:

All MTB or turbo, with a TransRockies in the middle. My second biggest year

Your allowed 😉
Because cyclists count in km, you monster.
4,200km. Garmin doesn't give me the climbing easily, but for every 35km I do, I do about 1000m. You do the sums if you want.

As is everyone else, nay encouraged!
181 rides. 196 hours. 3375 miles and 140k elevation gain.
Mix of mtb and road with some zwifting from November.
Worst year for me. Normally about 8000 miles a year. Aiming to get back on it from this Sunday when I return to the UK.
To date but still 4 days to go, all outdoors. Indoor miles not allowed/included
Distance: 2238.5 miles
Time: 207 hours
Elevation: 204,780 ft
Rides: 200
Mostly mountain biking with commutes once or twice a week thrown in.
Set a target of 200 hours in the saddle after couple of years of the little 'uns running the show, so happy with that.
Broke my elevation gain record 4 times during the year too.
just short of 5000 miles this year. mostly commutes and touring.
I think it's 2,760km, mixture of on and off road. I was hoping for more. Maybe next year. I also Swam 42km and kayaked 70km
Why use km for out door activities?. You those little blue squares on the map. Well they aren't a mile across are they
That doesn't mean I care what you use. But that's how my brain works
About half the pre kids totals, but, lots less illness and feeling rubbish this year, so I see it as the start of the long road back to fitness
1977miles
142hrs
111k ft ascent
130 rides
I also started swimming this year so quite pleased with the totals
44miles
24.5hrs
45 swims
Shame I can’t see rowing machine totals. I do a weights session weekly and yoga 3 or 4 times which I rarely did in previous years.
I will be squeezing a 23 mile ride in before the end of the year to round it to 2k
Why are people kidding themselves using kilometres ?
Because I live in the 21st century not the 17th.
Less sarcastically because maps are metric (and as noted above OS gridlines are at 1km spacing and have been since their introduction). I grew up on a farm and things have been metric in that industry for over fifty years. My schooling (1960s & 1970s) was in metric.
Most importantly it winds up The Daily Hate and similar.
Distance 1,494.6 mi
Time 133h 39m
Elev Gain 93,822 ft

not a bad year looking at the previous 3 or 4. Quite pleased with the amount of climbing considering 99% of my rides are round the Berkshire/Hampshire/Wiltshire borders. My rides to work and back don't get recorded and neither does PT training and yoga. I've also got a nip over 100miles running clocked up so yeh a good year over all, despite closing my activities on Dec20th with what feels like cracked ribs after colliding with some railings!!
3798 miles, 220,000ft climbing over 431 rides this year though there is a fair percentage of that on zwift. Add to that a rather lame 148 miles running.
Happy with the increasing bike time but not happy with the huge drop in running this year. Target for next year to try and do 100 miles a week cycling and 15 running.
Off to switch Strava to km as IRL cycling distance is the only think measure in imperial.
Distance 7,138.2 km
Time 290h 0m

Think that's my biggest ever year. Mostly road.
It's mileage, not kilometreage! 🙂
Couple of days to go (nice forecast, too), but as of today.
155 rides
3,783 miles
433,375 feet of climbing
All on the mountain bike, outdoors! No commuting.
Happy with it, thought I was going to break 4,000 miles this year, but the unremitting slop since September has done for that. Main target was the equivalent of 10 miles and 1000 feet every day during the year.
1,083 miles 96,978 feet. My target for the year was 2,000 miles but with 4 months completely off the bike due to injury and then a slow recovery I’m happy enough. 2,000 in 2020 though!
197 rides, 296 hrs, 4478 miles, 370580 ft of climbing.
Had targeted 5000 miles at start of year but 6 weeks out with a broken wrist ensured that didn't happen.
So far
145 rides
5652 km
119877 m ascent
Probably one more ride to squeeze in, to get me over 120000 m of climbing for the year
About 60% MTB this year, a big step up from last year, but total distance significantly down
On the bike it’s pretty much all on the road and most of it commuting.
Distance, 1,846.5 mi

Elev Gain, 58,704 ft
Runs, 319
Still maybe 20 miles to add to the running over the next few days too.
Compared to last year I’ve added 50% more running and lost maybe 1k of cycling. I suspect next year will follow a similar theme, more running and less cycling.
Rides: 305

First year I’ve gone over the 10k km although it’s mostly on road and includes some zwift over the winter so some would say it doesn’t count. I’m pleased though!
10,080km
274 rides
389 hours
91,704m climbing
A mix of mtb, road and turbo. Fairly pleased with those numbers as it has been a busy year at work, and I have had four weeks away with no opportunity to get on a bike. Also slowed down a bit in December due to some sort of lingering bug. Three days left to add to those numbers...
This year has been my worst effort for years. I did buy a house that needed a lot of work earlier in the year so sorting that out pretty much wiped out May & June, and I've only ridden once so far this month due to a bug I can't shift.
I'll try and squeeze one more proper ride in if I can but got a feeling these stats wont get added to ☹
Pretty much all MTB

Road and gravel. Mostly commuting but plenty of fun rides as well and alpine road rides. Most commutes are extended and not just door to door.
About to get up and head out on gravel bike which should put me over my 10,000 km target.
Biking 3200km 38000m climbed. 128rided
Running 700km and 8500m climbed 101 runs.
Nearly 50:50 time split there.
Not nearly as much as I had planned when I got back to the UK but then jnr turned up so can't be mad Haha
Wow some of you are doing huge mileages/kilometerages, Chapeau!
MIne are more prosaic, all MTB
128 rides, 168 hours, 2,196kms, and 46,600m height gain. (there's some uplift in there...)

Mix of MTB and road and a little bit of rollers ( which i still find scary and exhausting )
Good year for me as i have also done hiking, swimming and running for the first time in years
Really impressed with some of the numbers some of you have achieved as im retired and have loads of time to play
Here's mine, though I'm riding tomorrow and hopefully Tuesday. All outdoors, mixture of road and mtb. I'd set myself a goal of 200k meter climbing for no real reason, it was nice to get there on Christmas morning 🙂
Distance: 11,198.5 km

Split over a combination of mtb, road and some turbo. Will rise slightly tomorrow as off to FoD!
Made a target at the start of the year to hit 5000 miles but nearing the end of September I realised this meant a weekly average of 114 miles from then on, managed it until mid December when norovirus plus Christmas commitments hit and it became impossible to fit in the miles, oh well next year!
I don't bother recording commutes and riding to/from trail head, only the MTB climb and descent

I went for quality over quantity this year and I've had some great rides but still put in some good numbers #thoseaintrookienumbers
Rides: 228
Time: 373h 39m
Distance: 8,068 km / 5,013 miles
Elev Gain: 60,088 m / 197,139 feet
Mainly commuting and road rides, some gravel style MTB rides. Zero turbo cos like that ain't riding is it.
Looks like no rides till the 1st so...
146 rides
2,907 km
Climbing cant be trusted as I do a fair bit of shuttling (49k apparently)
All on the mountain bike, outdoors, no commuting.
Rides 459
Time 533
Distance 8309
Elevation 270042
Down a bit on the last two years but that's mainly due to more MTB and not as many long road rides. No overseas cycling trip this year either and as I live in the mountainous East Anglia elevation is not as high as I'd like.
Enjoyed my riding this year and that's the important thing in my eyes.
Distance 2,998.7 mi
Time 204h 9m
Elev Gain 121,253 ft
Rides 150
Will complete final ride today or tomorrow to reach 3K (or I might not). Started to get fit agin this year after a couple off the bike and enjoyed it.
Mixture of MTB, commuting on canals, road rides and Zwift. Trainer miles should count for more than outdoor miles; no rest, no coasting 🙂

Time 309h 45m
Distance 5200 miles (8320km)
Elevation Gain 222923ft (67947m)
I still have 3 commutes to go, that's another 60 miles to add to the totals.
Just worked out that's an average speed of 16.8 miles an hour over the year. Quite pleased with that as I was on a gravel bike for a couple of months and my single speed road bike for the last 8 weeks.
Distance 7,264.2 km
Time 374h 42m
Elev Gain 120,018 m
Rides 164
Not as much mileage as hoped, was looking for 8,000km, but more mtb this year reduced that.
And a crash this morning on my last ride of the year has me sitting here with a very sore and stiff hip, and very sore ribs.
Distance = 2,375.8km
Time = 235h 45m
Elev Gain = 82,658 m
Rides = 105
Well down on previous years, but I have stopped working for myself at home and joined the rat race.
Also literally only about four road rides in there, rest is MTB. And I've been going to the gym two or three times a week all year. And taken up running.
Is that enough excuses yet?
😉
Happily, I'm actually riding technical stuff faster and more confidently on the MTBs, thanks to the gym work.
1982 miles
156 rides
232hrs
225000ft elev gain (deducted the 4000ft of a BPW day!)
Lame December due to weather, manbola and lots of work kept me under 2000 miles but on the whole, best years mileage for ages.
6000.4 miles completed - ticked off the final 35 today to reach my target - no namby pamby indoor miles - lots of commuting in very wet conditions in the last 4 months in grandest West Yorkshire - though today I swear I saw dust - was on the canal towpath mind - but you have to take the positives after the last 4 months of rain
4133 miles
347,615 ft
112 rides
More rides than last year but missed my target by about 100 miles, which points to doing more MTB than 2018. However, most of my miles have been 'mixed' on a gravel or road bike (no commuting). Had a lot of fun, though, in France, Italy, Tasmania and California so generally satisfied. I'd like to do more more bikepacking and overnight tours next year and not let work kill entire months of my life.
Distance 1,8635 miles
Rides 140
Height gain 236,614 ft
No long road rides over 50miles this year but a week and a bit in whistler certainly bumped up the height gain 😀
Not sure what next year holds as we have just had a son 😀
My stats are:
Rides - 122
Mileage - 4,820 miles - 7,757Km
Climbing - 390,000ft - 118,000m
My worst years riding since 2015, however I spent a lot of time this year caring for my Father who sadly passed away in May & then I was knocked off my bike when a car hit me on a roundabout in November & it's taken time to recover.
I am hoping that 2020 will be a better year for me & my riding.
On the fat bike until May, then the new gravel bike this month:
Distance 2,741.4 km
Time 135h 7m
Elev Gain 20,282 m
Rides 55
I've nearly spent a similar amount of time immersed this year too:
Distance 375,838 m
Time 110h 41m
Swims 78
Was aiming for 2000miles. Could of hit it but this last week's been a bit shit.
I'd say 70percent is mtb so
Ave week rides 3
Av time 5hrs 20
Distance 53
So rides 177
235hrs
1950 miles
And 184k feet of climb.
Next year 3k and 300k is the goal
Lots of commuting (CX or road, v occasionally MTB), some tandem road rides, a bit of MTB
I've still got a ride home (10.8km or 6.45 miles, 280m or 922ft elevation) but so far:
Distance 5,149.4 km (3,199.7 mi) (2,219km excluding commutes)
Time 326h 40m (146h 25m excluding commutes)
Elev Gain 89,196 m (292,638 ft) (34,128m excluding commutes)
Rides 350
that means 2930 km and 55,068m elevation in 180 hours just while commuting. Quite pleased with that, not sure why some folks feel that commuting isn't proper riding
Hit my target of 2500 miles with a day to spare, with a very pleasant 25 mile jaunt with good company on a lovely sunny day.
All MTB (with a few uplifts in the mix)
Miles: 2523.9
Rides: 204
Hours: 271
Happy with that 🙂
Down on 2018 by a couple of hundred km, but I had a slow start in January for some lazy reason.
90% or more MTB I reckon.
