How's your mileage this year?

How are people doing on riding this year? Late spring and some saddle issues that side lined me in June have left me behind my goals.

Trying to get back on track for the season.

I've learned the hard way a cross country move will kill a lot of mileage goals.

I rode twice as much this winter as I have this summer. But aside from some dead weeks due to work, I haven't done too bad. I guess my overall average has been around 60 mi/week, with some well above 100 (one 215ish week even) and some 0.

I'm ahead of schedule. Every week between 125 and 150. Although hot here in summer, getting out early makes it OK, and weather hardly ever inteferes in AM.

I am closing in on 3000 with hopes I making it to or over 4000 for the year. Riding in North Louisiana is pretty good year round. Our summer has been great by our standards.

Just ticked over 3,500 miles with completion of today's ride. Still behind my normal year by about 800-1,000 miles. The really ugly, long winter and subsequent incredibly stormy May put me way behind. If I can finagle around 6,000 miles by Dec 31, I'll call it decent due to the weird weather. Last year , was over 7,000, IIRC.

Retired the end of April and this summer has been very co-operative, weather-wise.

I'll get in 5K miles, easy.

I'm at 5000 at the moment. I live in New England so during winter months am on Nordic skis. However, I am super busy in September and October so riding time is diminished. I plan to crest 6500 for the year.

Just shy of 2000 right now. Not great for me, but not too bad. Would like to ramp it up a bit in the next few months.

Short answer - it's crap

Long answer - it's crappier than even my worst expectations

I won't reach that, but I'll be close.

We did 72 today, but I start back at work after labor day.

Then it's a push to see how many I can get in before the snow flies.

We'll see how she goes......

Just passed the 4000 mile mark last week. I've gone on some good long rides this year.
