Finished up the year with about 4100 miles.1500 of that was commuting to work, which will be 0 for 2019. (First retirement day is today!)

Congrats to the OP and to anyone else who did 4,5 or 6K miles. That's a lot of time, energy and hopefully....sunblock.

I ended up with 6,336 miles in 2018 on 334 rides. I ride every day but missed quite a number of days due to a bad flu and spinal stenosis.

Congratulations! I'm starting off fresh, this year, only rode 50 miles, maybe in 2016, got a bike in July, don't like hot weather. I found a small group to ride with, should have people to inspire to push on and ride.

I know it is not the most for a year. Only been riding 4 years, so I feel pretty good about the mileage.
Fantastic! - that is an inspiration, man.
