March 2011 cycling statistics

Here are my cycling statistics for March. I now this month is still not fully over, I was really hoping to get out on the bike again one last time this month. It’s just so windy, it’s not going to happen. The wind speed is up 30 mph. I don’t really feel like getting blowing off my bike. It’s really pissed me off, since I really wanted to do another 34 miles, then I would have done 700 miles this month.

Here is the data from March 2011:-

  • Total cycles: 29
  • Total Distance: 666 miles
  • Total Time: 50:07:28 (h:m:s)
  • Avg Speed: 12.9 mph
  • Max Time: 4:30:57 (h:m:s)
  • Max Speed: 33.9 mph
  • Avg Distance: 23.11 miles
  • Max Distance: 60.10 miles

Data from: Garmin Connect.

Longest cycle so far this year (60 miles)…

This is where I should really say I did my 4th weekly shopping in a two using my bike… but no, I was bad boy and used my car. Also did it on Sunday… But now looking at it, it worked out for the best or I would not have done  the 60 mile cycle that I did 🙂

Think it may we one of the longest, if not the longest single day cycle, I have done since the End 2 End cycle, but I would need to check all my cycling data, to be fully sure. But one thing I do know for sure, it’s the most miles I have done in a single but, if I don’t count August 2009, when I did the End 2 End cycle. If the weather plays nice, may end my miles up to 700 before the month is out! So that’s my next goal…

Here are the statistics from the cycle:-

  • Time: 4:30:57 (h:m:s).
  • Avg Speed: 13.3 mph.
  • Max Speed: 30 mph.
  • Calories: 2,719.
  • Elevation Gain: 492 metres.
  • Elevation Loss: 486 metres.
  • Min Elevation: 31 metres.
  • Max Elevation: 161 metres.

Now done over 1,000 miles on the bike

I have now done 1,040.9 miles of cycling so far this year!! Well pleased with myself, to think my aim was 1,000 miles before the 1st April. Still got another 9 days to go, till then. 1,040.9 may not sound much, it’s like cycling from John O’Groats to Land’s End, with a good number of miles to play with.

So now on to today’s cycle.  I did the longest cycle of the year so far… I did wait for it… 51.7 miles. Even did my best average speed of the year so far, with 13.8 mph.

Here are the statistics from the cycle:-

  • Time: 3:44:30 (h:m:s).
  • Avg Speed: 13.8 mph.
  • Max Speed: 30 mph.
  • Calories: 2,351.
  • Elevation Gain: 510 metres.
  • Elevation Loss: 509 metres.
  • Min Elevation: 43 metres.
  • Max Elevation: 164 metres.

Longest cycle so far this year (40 miles)…

Well pleased with myself, just done my first 40 mile cycle of the year. I was aiming to do 40 miles on Sunday, but I paused my GPS to go into a shop, but forgot to restart it. So I was not fully sure how many miles I had done, so by the time I had added on the section, the GPS did not have the data for, I was short by just 1.11 miles.

So I had to make up for it…. Now my next goal is a 50 mile cycle before the month is out :).

Cycle statistics:-

  • Time: 3:05:12 (h:m:s).
  • Distance: 40.18 miles.
  • Calories: 1,802.
  • Avg Speed: 13.0 mph.
  • Max Speed: 29.3 mph.
  • Elevation Gain: 359 metres.
  • Min Elevation: 44 metres.
  • Max Elevation: 165 metres.
