Lifetime Miles
Sort move from the political although I don't mind it, I have an interesting question. I am a long distance runner and that really is the background I come from. I still run but age and runner's dystonia make that much more challenging. I have always ridden and bike and used it through most of my running years. Runners keep a log an most serious ones can tell you lifetime miles or a good estimate. I can running and even on the bike.
So what sort of lifetime miles do the regulars here have on the books? I still have way more running miles that cycling miles but at present rate Lord willing. I will catch up. I post mine of any are curious, maybe no gives a rats ass too. Cycling is a bit more challenging to keep track off. Deacon Mark |

Cycling is a bit more challenging to keep track off. In 2009, I had a front fork break and drop me on my head. I suffered a severe concussion and apparently threw away all of my records. But I have ridden for 40 years and I think that a short mileage year was 2500 miles. For three years previous to my injury I did 10,000 miles years. I was doing 6,000 mile years from 2012 to 2015 when the people I was riding with moved home to Arizona. Now, mostly solo riding I put in about 4,000 miles a year and concentrate more on climbing than mileage. 100,000 to 200,000 foot years are normal Though I have seen a 300,000 foot year. So as a general estimate without any records before 2009, I would say 120,000 miles which is probably conservative. I did do some long distance touring. |

Cycling is a bit more challenging to keep track off. Deacon Mark What is the point to know what your mileage was 20-30 years ago? Only interesting is the current year compared to the year before. Never found the ODO setting on a cycling computer interesting. It is that with a Garmin(Connect)/Strava it is logged automatically otherwise I wouldn't know. Just past the 10000 km mark last Sunday. Last year it was just over 11000 km. I think I will beat that this year, just because of the lock down early this year and the fine weather during that period. We are heading for a second (partial) lock down here, because we f*cked up again. Lou |

You have to use a plug-in app. My annual mileage on the road is less than yours. Typically 5000 - 6000* km per year on the road. I don’t ride in the snow anymore so my season is April - October. The rest of the year I’m on a trainer in my basement. *This year has been somewhat less since I don’t ride to work. |

Trainer only when it is icy which is seldom thank god. Lou |

There's a time of not normal functioning that lets you know the battery is dying. I right down my total before I change the battery and then input the total when after I put in the new battery.
