    My 2009 cycling stats: "not enough" :(
  • iain_jiain_j Posts: 1,941
    OK. I don't use my cycle computer on the commute, but it's 7 miles a day, 5 days a week, 48 weeks of the year, minus the odd day off sick or on the bus.

    Apart from that:

    Rides: 14

    Mileage: 1001 (9 short of last year - bah)
    Average speed of 2009: not telling. too slow.
    Slowest ride of 2009: 71 miles at 11.9mph avg. I was doing brilliantly until the final 30 hilly miles into what had become a gale force headwind. I'm only including this cos I'm chuffed I stuck with it and finished the ride :lol:
    Top speed of 2009: 45.3mph (bombing down the hill to Nercwys in N Wales - whee!)

    Longest ride: 104 miles (12 miles short of 2008's longest but I was utterly drained)
    Avg ride distance: 71.5 miles (quite pleased with that)
    Most climbing in one ride: 1897m (in 72 miles round the northern Peak District)

    Longest gap between rides: 2 months :evil: between Oct and Dec. Still commuted by bike in this time but couldn't get a free weekend to go on a ride :evil:

    Cafe stops: 1 per ride. Sometimes 2.
    Punctures: Nil.
    Crashes: Nil.

    How have you worked out average ride distance?

    second half of 2009 has been crfap for me and messed the whole year up.

    All I know is

    Longest ride: 175 miles
    Fastest ride over 100 miles - 123 miles to filey, ended up 19.1mph door to door, allthough 165 miles very very hilly at 18.5mph was good.
    Fastest ride under 100 miles - 70 miles @ 20mph
    Slowest solo ride - 62 miles with nearly 5000ft of ascent, 16mph avg.
    total amount for 2009 - don't know, I screwed it up, GPS has car rides, train rides into that aswell, so it's inaccurate, probably around 9000 though.

    Crashes - 0
    Near misses - 3 or 4.

    I have it on a spreadsheet so it's easy, but you can just do Total Mileage / No. of rides

    Wow, all the info you guys record has just inspired me to make my own Excel file for 2010! :) All I know is that I did approximately 3500 since I started in June.

    Have you included turbo/roller sessions? Because I cant see how average speed on a roller/turbo (but especially roller) can compare to being on the road. It's just I intend to do a lot or roller sessions over the next couple of months and want to be able to include data from them...

    Hours spent flirting with the waitresses at the local cafe instead of riding: 200+hours.

    Seriously, what is it with cyclists and stats. I'm sure I'd enjoy my rides more if I ignored the distance/speed/average speed/time etc...... but I just can't :shock:

    Yeah, once I get a powertap, it'll get worse. :lol: Although, I don't think i'll bother counting distance when I get that, just power and time.

    guv001 -

    I barely look at distance at all these days. Just time. I will look at the distance, but I can usually tell how hard a ride is just by how long i've been out and how hard I went during that time.

    You can be on a flat road with a tailwind and the kilometers will fly by. In the mountains, you can be going for hours before they start to add up to anything significant, yet you're probably killing yourself a lot more.

    Do you have an indoor trainer/rollers? If so, you'll probably agree that, when using them, effort and time are more important things to worry about, compared to the distance.
