This evening I met my annual goal of 4,250 miles. Before the end of the month I’ll do another 250 miles. I work full time and have a life outside of pedaling. I just love a bike ride. I don’t race and I like a beer and a donut (not at the same time). This is my highest mileage in a year ever and I bounced back from 3 hip surgeries and total hip replacement after getting hit by a car in early 2023. I’m proud of this many miles.
4,250 miles is a lot – or is it? It feels like a lot, but for some reason it doesn’t really. I just enjoy spending time on the bike – it feels like mediation.
What’s your mileage goal for the year, and/or how many miles a year are you happy with?

My target is to reach 100 000km total on Strava by the end the the year.
Started in 2014
My riding tailed off a lot at the start of summer due to lots of travel and other commitments. Usually target 10k miles per year and have done so for the past 6-7 years. Fell pretty short or that this year.
