miles......................
 

How many people have done a million miles on there bikes ?:welcome:

Something over half a million for me so I guess at my age and that I am more a cyclist than motorcyclist now means I will not make it to seven figures.

I haven't the faintest idea how many miles I've done by bike or even by car. I only have the vaguest notion of how many miles I do on foot every year despite it all being recorded by Garmin / Apple / Fitbit.

I have noticed on some mainly US based Facebook bike groups that some people post up reports of amazing mileages, so I suppose a million miles chugging up and down interstates on endless Iron Butt rides wouldn't be that unusual, but that's never been my thing.

Yeah, for a few years I was clocking up 50K a year (long commute plus riding for work) and it was miserable. I do about 10K a year now and it's awesome :cool4:

yes .. its very easy to get biked out !
Its all to do with the quality !
I think the average for uk is around 3,000 a year

I remember that stat being chucked around in the 70's / 80's, with people arguing it was too low or too high or the sampling was faulty or whatever the issue was. I'm not sure how it's made up - whether it includes a dozen bikes that do 5 miles to the MOT station once a year being balanced by someone else who does 40,000 a year or whether they only count pizza deliver scooters or whatever. I think I've done about 8000 bike miles in the last 12 months but most of those were concentrated into a small number of long trips. By contrast, most of my car miles (about the same - 8k) were done as short commuter style trips in the local area.
