Serious cyclists?

CentralCaliCycling

I am curious how many on here are what I would consider real serious cyclists. Just wondering who here has a yearly goal of at least 5,000 miles, or at least 400 a month when you can cycling for those living in area where you cannot cycle year round.

Hello, I love to ride and just reached 1,000 miles YAY!!!! Living in Ohio, when I can't ride outside I Spin. However, this past winter was so mild we were able to ride in Feb. and March.

We get to ride all year round here but I ride rollers if the weather is too wet or I feel whimpy. They are great for helping your form on the bike and clean up pedal stroke issues.

Any other cyclists out there who are looking for winter mileage motivation?

Sadly, my winter mileage will be on a spinning bike at the studio and on my trainer at home. I know people that ride year 'round here but I'm not that hardcore (lots of snow, ice and -305C temperatures in Jan & Feb) I'll probably ride up until the end of November or mid-December (depending on when the snow flies) and the bike stay on the trainer until mid to late April.

I was aiming for 1000 miles a month to hit 12000 for 2012 after reaching 11500 in 2011 after a very slow start following a knee operation. Just passed 12500 miles so now pushing for 14000.

Yes - me!

I planned to get up at 6am and head out at 7:00 for a tiny 8 miles to work. It was dark and felt cold when I first got up - now it's 7:32 it is not so dark and it feels mild out there but not enough time to get to work in time.

Another car drive :-(
