Annual elevation. What's yours?

[slide mon]

I was pretty obsessed with tracking elevation last year, but have stopped this year. A lot of commitments are keeping me to 1 mtb ride a week so trying to squeeze more time in on the bike via commuting which is pretty flat. More miles, but while I was ahead of last year through June or July I'm pretty sure my total would be under 250K if I was still tracking every ride.

rednova's numbers are from Marin, most good riding here requires a lot of steep climbing. It's hard to ride 20 miles without at least 3.7-4K of climbing, 187 is right on the money.

I just ride my bike, up, down, around, and enjoy it. I have no electronics on me except for a turned off cell phone and a digital camera. No clue or cares as to how far ,fast, or how much. I prefer to smell the fungi and wildflowers

I'm with Buzz Cut. No electronics for me. If I were aiming for some arbitrary mileage, or climbing goal, it would just stress me out. I ride to relieve stress, not add to it.

Regardless of how many miles we rode or climbed, I hope you all had a fun time on your bike!

But of course. Exercise and fun all rolled into one.

I just like keeping track of milage.
Im not fast, I dont go hunting KOMs,, I just like having the raw data.

Used to track stuff by hand, but I cant wait to put in 7k miles in a year again.

Overall a solid active year for a guy w/four kids and a busy work schedule.
The great thing is my son who is 8 has really taken to riding so hopefully I'll be able to continue "double ride" weekends and maybe break 350K next year. All miles and footies are a gift!
