534 miles on strava for July, spread over a variety of bikes, but I don't strava rides to town and back, with that included I'd be at 650-700.

Approx 600 for August. Most weekends about 100 and then another 50 for a few rides during week. Good considering most of this riding was in 90+ TX heat & humidity

I don't know exactly because I don't keep track, I'm a cycling noob... got into the hobby in June and have become addicted. My commute to work is about 3 miles and then I usually do between 10 to 20 miles after work and then on weekends putz around town putting in like 20± miles... if I had to ballpark it with days off here and there I'd saying between 300 to 400 per month so far

August: 343.

YTD: 735.

School is starting up for the kids this week, so my commute miles might start falling off. Then the 9 month long rainy season will start..... It'd be nice to hit 1K for the year.

I had an interesting spring/summer:

March: 236 miles
April: 187 miles
May: 420 miles
June: 592 miles
July: 540 miles
Aug: 0 miles

That's because I was away from home pretty much the entire month of August without a bike. I did, however, run a total of 59 miles over the month. I also started Sept with a 50-mile ride, so I hope to up the bike mileage as much as I can (and will continue to run).

I rode 186 miles in Sept (not including commuting and errand running), but that was only 4 rides. I did run 69 miles, getting out on 26 out of 30 days for the month.

Hit 300 for September, despite being sidelined with a nasty cold.

Was out of it for over a week!

Miles

I consistently ride around 1,000-1,200 miles a month during the warm season(Mid to late March through the end of October), 600-800 a month November/December, and as little as 400 a month during the coldest winter months(January and February mostly indoors on the stationary). I’ve been doing this amount of miles per year since 2006.

Oct = 209 YTD = 1809

Got out for 3 long weekend rides,and one after work ride early in the month.

Would like to get 2k for the year, but we just had our first snow and it looks like the cold is coming.

Pretty much limited to weekend riding at this point.

Oct = 268 mi
YTD = 1,960 mi

My average has gone up since I started taking classes in late August, so my tally for the year will be higher than previously projected.
